Quotations from Plath, Sylvia

Dying is an art.
Like everything else,
I do it exceptionally well.
I do it so it feels like hell.
I do it so it feels real.
I guess you could say I have a call.

Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) American poet and author

“Lady Lazarus”

I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
