There isn't enough Sylvia Plath poetry analysis out there
So I think we need to assemble a team and share ideas.
I'm going through Carol Ann Duffy's collection of Plath in order, analysing each one, but I need help bc I want different interpretations.
So I'm just gonna put my analysis in here for Ode for Ted and you can read it and use it if you want, and tell me what you think etc.
Ode for Ted (An 'Ode' doesn't necessarily have to be a love poem, but it must be dedicated to a person.)
From under crunch of my man's boot
green oat-sprouts jut;
he names a lapwing, starts rabbits in a rout
legging it most nimble
to sprigged hedge of bramble,
stalks red fox, shrewd stoat.
(In this first stanza, I feel like 'red fox' is Plath herself. With this interpretation, it can be understood that she is describing his fuckboy tendencies.)
Loam-humps, he says, moles shunt
up from delved worm-haunt;
blue fur, moles have; hefting chalk-hulled flint
he with rock splits open
knobbed quartz; flayed colors ripen
rich, brown, sudden in sunlight.
(Here, Plath seems to be continuing her metaphor for her husband's love life. She is praising his strength and manliness, and connection with nature. Plath seems to have a particular interest in nature, which is explored further in her poem 'November Graveyard', which discusses the meaning we search for in nature, when in actuality there is none. To link this back to Ode for Ted, Plath might be arguing that though nature has no deeper meaning to reach for, she and her husband still gain pleasure from it. It is described as "rich", with words such as "ripen" to demonstrate this. I think that Plath is celebrating pleasure to be found in the mundane, whist also praising her husband's excessive, almost caveman like manliness, which attracts her.)
For his least look, scant acres yield:
each finger-furrowed field
heaves forth stalk, leaf, fruit-rubbed emerald;
bright grain sprung so rarely
he hauls to his will early;
at his hand's staunch hest, birds build.
(Plath is describing her husband's strength and power over the natural world, which seems quite rare. He harvests abundant crop, "stalk, leaf, fruit-rubbed emerald", which is described as something done "rarely". This emphasises Ted's deep connection with nature. To take a slightly different approach to the interpretation I gave with the last stanza, Plath could be commenting on her husband's superficiality. He has this strong connection to nature, the nature which Plath seems to find to have only surface level value. Rather than being a positive comment, Plath could instead be lamenting the lack of substance she sees even in the parts of life she loves the most.)
Ringdoves roost well within his wood,
shirr songs to suit which mood
he saunters in; how but most glad
could be this adam's woman
when all earth his words do summon
leaps to laud such man's blood!
(I didn't make a mistake in copying here, Plath chose not to capitalise 'adam', which, to me, seems to finally confirm to the reader that this poem was meant to be satirising the manly man. She chooses not to capitalise adam as a slight to the biblical significance of the name, and rejoices in the honour of being his "woman". There seems to be a sarcastic tone as she ends the poem - "leads to laud such man's blood!" - and seems almost to be mocking the godlike persona she has given him thus far. Though this poem was for her husband, this interpretation could be totally misinterpreting the original message because I am viewing the poem through a modern lense, but Plath has been seen poking fun at the stereotypical 'manly man'. Considering this with her over-the-top descriptions of her husband's connection to nature, and the general feminist tone of her writings, I think that this interpretation holds some weight.)
Okay thank you for reading if you did, I hope you found something useful here. If you have another reading you'd like to share I'd love to hear it, that's why I did this in the first place. It's just that I was looking up Plath analysis online and there was nothing so I wanted to do some myself and find some other people who like her.
someone needs to teach me how to make sims pretty ASAP bc iāve been downloading shit from the gallery but i canāt actually make my simsā children look pretty
like my sim and her wife just had two children and they were both so ugly i wanted to cry bc my eyes were burning

can the gods and goddesses of greek mythology contract stds?
*disclaimer this was all made for fun but no disrespect was meant towards anyone who has an STD, there is nothing to be ashamed about, it was made purely because despite all of the unsafe sex and incest in ancient greece there donāt seem to be any repercussions. the only important thing about STDs is that you are completely honest with your partner(s) about them.*
YES:
- STDs are easily contracted by those who are the product of incestā¦
- STDs can be genetic (this proves that demigods can get STDs, but not full gods)
- there was no such thing as safe sex in ancient greece
NO:
- theyāre immortal deities and have magic
- Polyphemus didnāt get sepsis from being blinded by Odysseus because Poseidon protected him, so why canāt he protect himself from STDs?
A friend of mine put forward the very interesting point that the gods and goddesses could be carriers but not shows symptoms, this was discussed at length but no answer was decided.
Even a vote couldnāt answer this question definitively, please vote your side. use your voice now while it matters.
my classics class debate many things, but today we debated the gen z personas of the greek gods. so enjoy

iām going for a pretty niche corner of the internet here so just keep listening as i tangeant.
apple white is who draco malfoy could have been
an essay by me āØ
ARGUMENT NUMBER ONE
they are both problematic blondes who come from places of privilege and this warped view of the world causes them to make bad choices down the line.
ARGUMENT NUMBER TWO
they both had homoerotic relationships with the main protagonist
i donāt think i need to prove drarry to tumblr
ARGUMENT NUMBER THREE:
their bad decisions, as horrible as they were, were both made when they were children and were receiving pressure from external forces. apple was receiving pressure from the adults around her who wanted her to fulfill her destiny. where was draco getting his pressure from again? the adults around him who wanted him to fulfill his destiny? i rest my fucking case
what apple white had that draco deserved
1. a redemption arc. after appleās mistake she takes a little while to come around to ravenās side but eventually realizes whatās right and whatās wrong and ends up having a huge part in defeating the evil queen. this is important for kids to see because it teaches that you can recover from your mistakes and that forgiveness is possible.
2. (apple was robbed of this too but for the sake of my imagination letās pretend that we had a season 6 of ever after high) a gay storyline.
donāt tell me this was friendship or just āthe kiss of lifeā. donāt you dare, the kiss fucking glowed the apple was poisoned daringās kiss didnāt work donāt you fucking dare.
letās just pretend āØhypotheticallyāØ that in season 6 of ever after high apple and darling started dating. IMAGINE how awesome that would be.
anyway i just thought the similarities were funny. i was gonna link a video below that explains why ever after high got cancelled but for some reason the link thing wonāt work so iāll just sum it up, essentially disney copied mattel and made descendants which was bigger than ever after high so ever after high stopped, a colossal tragedy i realise, but i am desperate for it to return, this time with a darling/apple/raven love triangle, the sapphic representation we deserve.

the most unrealistic part of miraculous isnāt the obliviousness of adrien and marinette, it isnāt the supervillains and the superheroes, itās the fact that marinette ISNāT in love with cat noir.
i mean, iāve fallen in love with cat noir 127 times by now and he isnāt even real.
hop on it, sis, you deserve a sexy super hero to treat you right.
