Sylvia Plath took her life
when she was only thirty years old.
Her son took his own life
on my thirtieth birthday.
Sometimes it feels like
all I'm doing is circling Sylvia
slowly down the drain.

Hi Janice, just visiting, but wondering if you might be interested a project/exhibition I'm organizing: A BOOK ABOUT DEATH. I suppose the Circling Sylvia note hit a chord with me vis à vis this exhibition, but do take a look. It would be great to have you contribute:
