Have a little read: ... 'The Woman at the Washington Zoo' The poem 'The Woman at the Washington Zoo' is written by Randall Jarrell. Commentary written by Kristoffer Alsvik. It is not only physical jail cell bars that can keep a person in captivity, also the bars of one owns body and the limitations set by a way of living that could be the worst kind of prison. This poem brings up the topic of imprisonment, being trapped in ones own body, conscious of age and lack of importance. The poem suggests from the very start that this woman feels very alone. It doesn't seem like she relates to other people, only describing them as exotic or off this world clothing such as, saris (L 1) and "cloth from the moon" (L 2), and "cloth from another planet" (L 2). She instead of relating other people to herself, she instead relates them to the animals at the zoo
