15 Free Verse “Hanging Fire” by Audre Lorde
I am fourteen and my skin has betrayed me the boy I cannot live without still sucks his thumb in secret how come my knees are always so ashy what if I die before the morning comes and momma's in the bedroom with the door closed. I have to learn how to dance in time for the next party my room is too small for me suppose I die before graduation they will sing sad melodies but finally tell the truth about me There is nothing I want to do and too much that has to be done and momma's in the bedroom with the door closed. Nobody even stops to think about my side of it I should have been on Math Team my marks were better than his why do I have to be the one wearing braces I have nothing to wear tomorrow will I live long enough to grow up and momma's in the bedroom with the door closed. Free Verse

16 Free Verse "Hanging Fire" is the title of the poem, and it comes from the lingo of weaponry: a "hang fire" refers to an unplanned delay between the triggering and the ignition of a gun. It's a moment of pause between pulling the trigger of a gun and its actual firing. Audre Lorde's use of the phrase "hanging fire" in the poem's title is metaphorical. The poem is not about guns, or gun malfunctions, but about adolescence. Think about the teenage years as a time of "hanging fire"—a dangerous time between childhood and adulthood, a long and risky pause. In fact, the phrase has entered conversational English to signify a delay in progress. By titling her poem with a gun metaphor, Lorde is alerting us to the danger in this poem. There's a threat underlying the speaker's teenage anxieties. Adolescence is not all braces and dances; it's a tough, even dangerous time for lots of teens.
