Written by
Sylvia Plath |
Little poppies, little hell flames,
Do you do no harm?
You flicker.
I cannot touch you.
I put my hands among the flames.
Nothing burns
And it exhausts me to watch you
Flickering like that, wrinkly and clear red, like the skin of a mouth.
A mouth just bloodied.
Little bloody skirts!
There are fumes I cannot touch.
Where are your opiates, your nauseous capsules?
If I could bleed, or sleep! -
If my mouth could marry a hurt like that!
Or your liquors seep to me, in this glass capsule,
Dulling and stilling.
But colorless.
Colorless.
