Pleasant Place To Be, By Nikki Giovanni
Poetry is a type of writing that may or may not explain nature and life in curious terms. Poetry may give insight into erosion, or the loveliness of a snow fall. It might describe the moon as an ordinary object, such as a balloon.
Some poetry can teach life lessons, like living without a partner. As it states in the poem, The World is Not a Pleasant Place to Be, written by Nikki Giovanni. The first stanza states, “the world is not a pleasant place to be without someone to hold and be held by”. Everybody wants someone to love, and someone to be loved by. When a person is all alone it makes for a lonely lifestyle. This poem points to the knowledge that without having a reason to exist, then there is no reason to breathe.
