Poem #18

"Women" By: Adrienne Rich

Adrienne talks about how her and her three sisters are sitting outside on rocks all doing separate things that show who they are. When she talks about her first sister she is saying how she normally keeps her emotions to herself but she is making a 'costume' where she will be transparent. When she talks about her second sister, she is saying how she is trying to mend her broken heart. When she talks about her third sister she says how she is doing nothing but looking out over the distance and that she is messier and not sewing like the other two but this makes her beautiful cause she doesn't care. This was a really cool poem to me and simple to understand.
