Mending Wall
” Mending Wall” is about creating a barrier that limits the intermingling between two plane of existences, the individual and nature. This poem is about the protection of individuality and the signifiance of boundaries. A paradoxical situation also occur in the poem, where the narrator's neighbor has completely lost the signifiance or recognition of its worth beyond tradition. In this sense Frost is illustrating the negatives of placing a wall. The alienation and isolation of complete seperation. Frost constantly rebuilds this wall and in doing so engages in the development of a relationship with his neighbor instead of completely isolation. Though "SOMETHING" that constantly tears down the wall is something simlar to the very essence of nature.
