Yes, It's a very interesting poem with quite a focus.

Based in the Baptist South, the poem is a narrative lyric that distinguishes a problem faced by two college girls and their strict mothers (and community). The girl is described as being "terra-cotta"-colored meaning she has sun-baked skin from working in her fields. She has fallen in love with "the quiet girl down the hall". Her lifestyle choice is disapproved of by the Baptist religion and the mothers. They are both upset that the girl is able to bear children and chooses not to.

What was hell in the globe theatre?

Trap doors were built into the stage allowing dramatic entrances during the performances of plays. The height of the stage was five feet - so the area beneath the stage was easily big enough to hold actors. This area underneath the stage was given the title "Hell". This was taken from the term 'hell mouth' which was used to refer to any trap-door in the bottom of a stage (called the cellerage). The Globe theatre stage was believed to have had two trap doors on the outer stage and one trap door on the inner stage called the "grave trap" Actors would hide in "Hell" waiting to make their entrance or to create other special effects. Unusual special effects could be made from 'Hell' including different sounds using different musical instruments such as the trumpet, or drums. Actors skilled in imitating the baying of hounds and crowing of roosters or the wailing of ghostly sounds would also be waiting in 'Hell'.
