Read the poem below.
Title: "Porchlight"
She waits where moths mistake the bulb
for a small, dependable moon.
The neighbors' laughter travels
through the hedge like spilled seed.
She checks her phone, then the street,
then the same emptiness again,
as if repetition could summon
a car's familiar throat.
Inside, the kettle clicks itself off.
She leaves it that way.
In the living room, a framed photo
leans slightly, refusing
to stand at attention.
How does the poem's use of third-person ("she") perspective most shape the reader's understanding of the subject?
