Answer:

<h3>Realizing that the world is filled with strangers.</h3>

Explanation:

In the poem "Second Estrangement", the poet presents the image of an innocent child who realizes that the world is filled with strangers. She says that one does not realize how scary and estrange the world is until he/she is lost and all alone.

Through the lines "<em>only to see the face look strangely down, utterly foreign, utterly not the one who loves you</em>", <u>the poet presents the idea of seeing the reality of life. </u>Just like the child, everyone of us think we are in a safe place until we see the reality of life.
Then she ends the poem with the lines "<em>How far the world you knew, & tall, & filled, finally, with strangers." </em>to ironically bring the message of life's cruelty and reality.
