In the poem "My Own True Family" by Ted Hughes, the phrase "twice awake" is used to emphasize the speaker's heightened sense of awareness and alertness. It suggests that the speaker is not just awake physically, but also mentally or emotionally awakened to the reality of their family dynamics or relationships, experiencing a deeper level of understanding or insight. By saying "twice awake," the poet conveys a sense of vigilance and awareness that goes beyond merely being awake in a literal sense.
