Her reputation:
born poet, married a poet,
volume written just before death.
She came to dying
like the twentieth century rests.

plath fan, so plath -- in which case she had a volume posed before her best. but that's irrelevant; instead, two notes, first being consider changing 'written' to something sturdier ('piled, published), second being consider bolstering sonics by changing 'twentieth century' to '1900s'.

Hey RiverNotch,
You nailed it. This is actually a found poem I wrote using the back cover of Plath's "Ariel".
Cheers,
Richard
