When I see the words “Hounded by the World”, I think of someone being looked for all over the world. “Hound” has the meaning “to pursue relentlessly”, so “Hounded by the World” most possibly means to be looked for in everywhere. People that are possibly hounded by the world are probably international criminals, or celebrities. The poem “World, in hounding me” turned out to be very different then I thought it would be. The poem talked about how the writer only valued the treasure in her mind, and does not care for the treasure and wealth. I didn’t really get what the title of the poem has to do with the poem’s content. I thought it would be a story of how she is pursued relentlessly by someone else.
