It's in the clerical collar of the dress where that smile lies. What smile? The smile of my seventh year, caught here in the painted photograph. It's peeling now, age has got it, a kind of cancer of the background and also in the assorted features. It's like a rotten flag or a vegetable from the refrigerator, pocked with mold. I am aging without sound, into darkness, darkness. Anne, who are you? I open the vein and my blood rings like roller skates. I open the mouth and my teeth are an angry army. I open the eyes and they go sick like dogs with what they have seen. I open the hair and it falls apart like dust balls. I open the dress and I see a child bent on a toilet seat. I crouch there, sitting dumbly pushing the enemas out like ice cream, letting the whole brown world turn into sweets. Anne, who are you? Merely a kid keeping alive.

This nice poem gives me imagination of a young family. Well done.

nice imagination.............beautiful thought....thanks for sharing

...incredible imagery...nicely written ★

Anne is such a beautiful soul...... yet tortured by some inability to fully enjoy her own self... I'm sad of that, but glad she lived to write things like this, things that we all feel at some point. I think if I had met her I would most want to have told her that I understand...... Someone coined her poetry as confessional, I suppose because it tends to explore inner thoughts, and self.

Well constructed poem, its perfect

Very well written :) She is becoming one of my favorite poets. I wish she could still keep writing...

Sexton was a master at imagery. I love this poem, and would think it even better without the 'anne who are you...kid..alive.' ending. She's at her best when she hits and runs.

I like this poem....you have to just go with the flow on every line...very interesting!

Goes in too many different directions. Despite the Anne, who are you theme, the poem doesn't work for me.
