Lovely lines -- to recognise things that others may deem flaws, but are really only charms.
(I don't necessarily compare them, but you can't fault me for disliking them both -- perhaps it's my lack of pills)
Youre of course entitled to dislike both.
The reason why I do like sexton is not because of her writing. ;-)
a with Plath: There is exatly one poem I love (April aubade (I translated into German).
All her hatred for her German father does not impress me. Why?
Because she was not the only one; I'll name you three poets by far better than sylvia:
First I name ngeborg Bachmann (an Austrian poetessa (who just btw ODed on ills. Oh the irony!)
the other two poets were americans:
Theodore Roethke
and
WCW.
I wrote a rhythmic prose piece (in German: Tempelmusik) in which I make mention of Danse Russe and also wrote two poems (en Anglais) in which I refer (also) to
"In a dark time."
