(1951 / UK)

What do you think this poem is about?

Etheline

Etheline
a name
like some plastic
or compound
or tangly wangly polymer.

Etheline
a writer
with some pain
and then again
with grace
and acid
in her words.

Etheline
again
short and sweet
but not so sweet as one would dare
dismiss the anger that she shares.
