Sylvian

A poem inspired by Sylvia Plath.

She burrows deep exploring

Dendrites dance, neurons romance

She has charmed the sleeping snakes

 

Laid dormant for to long wrapped

In knotted stress. She caresses

The abandoned child lost

 

In moorland mists

She kissed the darkness.

Ganesh is summoned.

 

Reflecting in murky waters

Crashing against sharp rocks.

But the words keep flowing.

 

Icy water falls wake

Refresh this weary soul.

She opens a new day.
