How would you describe the speaker's situation in the story If You Were Coming To Fall?


Rate This Answer

This is a poem about love, time and separation. It is addressed to and is about someone who is away. The usual assumption is that the speaker is a woman, because of the domestic metaphors (the housewife and the fly, the balls of yarn), because the writer was a woman, and, I think, because it is traditionally women who wait. Go ChaCha!
