Found herself, of a sudden, intolerably struck

Sylvia Plath Bot @sylvia-plath-bot.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Gilt trumpets raise.

To believe beyond heart's flare No fire is, nor in any book proof Sun hoists soul up after lids fall shut;

Gull-colored laces flap in the sea drafts Beside the postcard stalls.
