“Can you understand? Someone, somewhere, can you understand me a little, love me a little? For all my despair, for all my ideals, for all that – I love life. But it is hard, and I have so much – so very much to learn.”

Poe M

I had a lovely chat with Mr. Poe.
The Tell-Tale Heart is dead you know.
Twas in a gutter where he lay,
De Grave is the special of the day,
and Sylvia's supper is silence-fraught,
'neath airless glass forever caught,
while Emily's friends assist her decay.
Did I hear a fly buzz when a chariot
rolled away?

Here, death comes to the so-called gifted too,
with shriveled face and a pompous hairdo
to hand out the awards with a toothy grin.
She gives me one more honorable mention,
old as the hills with the hand of a child,
scribbles on a page, satisfied smile, 
simple-minded pupils, but they'll catch her gaze,
feasting on the tutor's highly-seasoned praise.

I leave with a bitter taste on my tongue, 
my thoughts on writers who died too young, 
and fossils mumbling weird poetry, 
leaving no room at the table for me.

The soup's rather tasteless, though I am sure it is wet. 
Pardon me, but I've already 'et, 
and I've had my fill of "no" and "not yet,"
So I won't be ordering from your menu, 
thou Poet Laureate.

Having spent the week in Yorkshire, I couldn’t resist picking up The Poems of Sylvia Plath, a new landmark edition edited by Amanda Golden and Karen V. Kukil and published just last week. This edition draws on decades of research and almost doubles the content of the 1981 Collected Poems.

The second image here is from a visit to Plath’s grave at the church at Heptonstall, back in September 2020. I still find it hard to believe that she was only 30 when she died, and yet she produced so much incandescent work.

La luna sin entristecerse de nada

observa desde su capucha de hueso.

Ella la usa para estas cosas.

Su crujido negro y arrastrado.” Sylvia Plath #poem #sylviaplath

“Los tulipanes son demasiado entusiastas, acá es invierno.
Vean qué blanco todo, qué tranquilo, qué nevado.
Aprendo a estar en paz, acostada sola, en silencio
como la luz se acuesta en estas paredes blancas, esta cama, estas manos.
No soy nadie. Nada tengo que ver con explosiones.
Les di mi nombre y mi ropa de calle a las enfermeras
y mi historia al anestesista y mi cuerpo a los cirujanos.

It's been 2 years since I last read The Bell Jar. I’ve been reading through Sylvia Plath's letters recently and feel the need to read it again. I love this book.

Episode ninety-seven is up now! Today's song is Sylvia by The Antlers.

I discuss the references to two famous Sylvias throughout the album, and the unfortunate realism of the lyrics.

8. Do you have a favourite opening line of a book?

I collect opening lines and #SylviaPlath’s ‘The Bell Jar’ is still on top:

“It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York.”

It has EVERYTHING.

#CallForPapers: The Routledge Companion to #SylviaPlath
