Alone in the Woods
Alone in the Woods is a poem by Stevie Smith and it is talking about how man is angering nature with how he is acting and how he is treating nature. Nature is angry because man does not appreciate it and thinks that it is ugly and not beautiful when it really is. I think this is the authors way of saying that man does not appreciate what is around him and if he doesnt start appreciating it it will turn on him.
