Oh Sylvia - Why Did You Do It Poem by Putholi Arumugham T
Oh Sylvia - Why Did You Do It
Were you left with no words
to match the intensity your thoughts Sylvia?
Was it for him, who had words
but not deeds in his love for you?
Was it to make sure your creations live
longer than their mother?
Oh Sylvia Sylvia
Why did you dissolve yourself in air?
The best poem on love, pain and ire
went hidden in your silence
When you added yourself to fire
The better ones are now orphaned
in your perennial poetry books
Why did you do it - Oh Sylvia Sylvia
Was it to ascertain the supremacy
of the stupid heart to brilliant mind?
What was in your heart
When you set it ablaze Sylvia -
love lost or a freedom gained?
Was it the only way to end
the wilderness of inconquerable mind?
Oh Sylvia Sylvia - Yet why did you?
Crow still remains and the Sun shines
But you took away the crow's whiteness.
Nice write Putholi...very good imagery. Keep writing Cheers Sandra

Hey gr8 poem. I'm glad that at least someone had the heart to write a poem on Sylvia Plath. She was a genius. It makes you visualize the scene of her death.10
