The first lines of ‘Hanging Fire’ introduce the reader to the speaker, a fourteen-year-old girl. She is filled with worries, many of which she shares. The first of these is not the most important, but its the first that comes to mind. She declares that her “skin has betrayed” her. This is a very relatable and obvious reference to acne. It’s bad enough to where it feels as though her skin is actively working against her, a wonderful example of personification.

In the third and final stanza of ‘Hanging Fire,’ the young speaker begins by saying that no one ver “stoeps to think / about my side of it”. This simple phrase carries a lot of weight. She feels as though the world looks past her or through her. No one, whether asking her is a real possibility or not, thinks to do so. She is not in control of her life and doesn’t want to be with one with “nothing to wear” and with “braces”.
