Beginning Again bb Franz Wright (Poetry Response 4)

When reading the poem "Beginning Again", I could not quite understand what the author is getting at with the poem. I thought the poem was about beginning, but that is not the vibe I got from the poem, I actually don't know what vibe I got, but it wasn't beginning. Even though I did fully quite understand the poem, I do believe that the poet was trying to say something very meaningful, like most poets do... :) Even though I do not quite understand the poem I do kind of like it. The words and style of writing he uses is very interesting. Me favorite line throughout the poem is the whole entire first stanza. I think what the first stanza is trying to say is that the man does not have an illness, but is maybe annoyed with the world and sick of all the talking, and if he didn't talk there would be nothing to worry about. And what I think about when he mentions the man performing brain surgery is just the man thinking, thinking, and over thinking things. Picking and proding at certain things mentally, not literally performing brain surgery. Other than the first stanza the rest of the poem does not really make since. I just don't think that th poem flows really well together, I am probably incorrect but it seems like after the first stanza he starts talking about a totally different thing than in the first stanza. I like this poem, I just don;t know how to interpret the poem and can't wait to hear other peoples thought on the peom in class when presented.
