Poems by Sylvia Plath
Eavesdropper
... To the electric milker, the wifey, the big blue eye ...
Temper Of Time
... Lurks the sickle-shaped shadow ...
Kindness
... Sugar can cure everything, so Kindness says ...
Mystic
... The chimneys of the city breathe, the window sweats, ...
The Companionable Ills
... The nose-end that twitches, the old imperfections-- ...
On The Plethora Of Dryads
... Of leaves' bicker and whisk in babel tongues, ...
Totem
... The butcher's guillotine that whispers: 'How's this, how's this ...
Mary's Song
... The ovens glowed like heavens, incandescent ...
The Surgeon At 2 A.M.
... They are departing in their transparent garments, turned aside ...
The Thin People
... But so thin, So weedy a race could not remain in dreams, ...
Doomsday
... As the doomstruck city crumbles block by block: ...
Aquatic Nocturne
... flicker gilt: grapeblue mussels ...
The Dream
... Last night, he said, I slept well ...
Snakecharmer
... Of sways and coilings, from the snake-rooted bottom ...
Circus In Three Rings
... and the fragments whir like a weather vane ...
