Plath's poems are just so beautiful and full of emotion. I am looking forward to studying these over the next week.

Favourite Poems: Wuthering Heights, Pheasant, Stillborn (wow!), Heavy Women, Mirror

"give me back my shape. i am ready to construe the days
coupled with dust in the shadow of a stone.
my ankles brighten. brightness ascends my thighs.
i am lost, i am lost, in the robes of all this light."

— favorites: 'finisterre', 'i am vertical', 'last words', and 'witch burning'.
