Plath's Monologue at 3 a.m. (1 a.m. redux)

fury
make head
blood
drenching-
vivid

and

vouching
youareaMILLIONgreencountriesfromhere

than to sit
mute
twitching so
under prickling stars
with stare
with curse
blackening the time
goodbyes were said
trains let go
and I --
great
magnanimous
fool--
thus wrenched from my one kingdom



(stuck in my head. like this. wrongwrongwrong. but lovely...)
