Personal deserts

In the poem " Desert Places," by Robert Frost there is a sense of extreme loneliness. In the poem itself he says loneliness four times. And some of the places that he refers to are nothing but emptiness. Spaces that have nothing to fill them. For instance when he talks about "the empty spaces between stars" in the last stanza he then refers to himself and how none of the places that exhibit such loneliness could scare him, because he can scare himself with his own desert places. This kind of displays the whole entire meaning of this poem, or the point that Robert Frost is trying to get across, that he has very bleak, dismal places within himself, that make him feel lonely, and make him feel like "absent-spirited." He states that "the loneliness included [him] unawares," even the loneliness in the world included him, and he is so lonely that its not even a big deal that he takes his place among the unnoticed. This poem is very depressing, and in fact most of the poems in here are actually quite depressing. Thanx Mrs. White! haha
