I usually catch my careless grammar errors before submitting a poem, or afterwards, and edit them. I read other comments. I thought Slyvia Plath was a singer; was she also a poet and author of a novel? bri : )

We are witnessing the rebirth of Sylvia Plath in the person of LeeAnn Azzopardi. I actually have a copy of her book The Bell Jar somewhere in my house. I read part of it once. Now I will have to find it and read the rest of it.

Sylvial Plath was such a great poet! And here you are, LeeAnn following in her footsteps. Love the diversity of your poetry!
