"Field Below" Response

In the poem "Field Below" by Regina Spektor  she is in a crowed city where she can't enjoy the things she once did, like a rooster crowing or a big open field below her house. Her tone in the poem is depressed that she can't enjoy everything she once did even though living in a big city should have better things to look forward to. I fell the author is trying to portray to us that living in the big light of a popular city isn't all its cracked up to be .

In "Field Below" the song I felt that she did sound depressed even more so than in the poem. But the mood is still the same feeling sorry for her living in a big city and not feeling right about where she is living. This shows that the way you interpret isn't always right, we don't know if she is truly feeling depressed about where she lives or if she is depressed about something else.
