Poems by Sylvia Plath
The Beekeeper's Daughter
... A fruit that's death to taste: dark flesh, dark parings ...
Widow
... They stand like shadows about the green landscape -- ...
Cinderella
... Guilt-stricken halts, pales, clings to the prince ...
Childless Woman
... Discharges itself from the tree with nowhere to go ...
A Better Resurrection
... A lift mine eyes, but dimmed with grief ...
The Trial Of A Man
... Now, disciplined in the strict ancestral chair, ...
Lament
... who scorned the tick of the falling weather ...
To Eva Descending The Stair
... The wheels revolve, the universe keeps running ...
Goatsucker
... So fables say the Goatsucker moves, masked from men's sight ...
Fiesta Melons
... Chooose an egg-shape, a world-shape, ...
Leaving Early
... Fine flour Muffles their bird feet: they whistle for joy ...
The Disquieting Muses
... And the shadow stretched, the lights went out ...
I Want, I Want
... Who set wasp, wolf and shark to work, ...
Tale Of A Tub
... in faith we shall board our imagined ship and wildly sail ...
Dialogue Between Ghost And Priest
... From your blue pallor, I'd say you inhabited the frozen waste ...
