Acquainted with the Night by Robert Frost Response

Isolation

Isolation,
Peer evasion,
On almost every one occasion
He never wants to meet anyone
for he fears confrontation
and questionable acclamation
 of those at the station
He separates himself from all
He is never on call
All alone 
On his own
He wouldn't have it any other way
He'd rather avoid the fray
and stay
by himself

Explanation
The theme in Acquainted with the Night is isolation. The man in the poem is very close to loneliness. He has become accustomed to it.
