Paz Doe's Poem The Street

In his poem “The Street” is of a path, perhaps a street anywhere, devoid of light and humanity. Using descriptive words such as “blackness,” “blind,” and “dark” gives the reader the feeling that the speaker is walking down the street feeling isolated from everyone else not having anyone help navigate through his journey. Although Paz doe mention there is someone behind the speaker, he cannot see him, and , when the stranger sees him, he says “nobody”, possibly suggesting the author’s own loss of identity in a foreign place.
