Poet: Sylvia Plath (Sylvia Plath Art)
Poem: A Better Resurrection

This poem is about a selfish and depressed woman who has made too many bad choices in her life and now she is falling into hell like a leaf. It is judgement day and she has waited until now to ask Jesus for his help. I believe it is a little too late

I had to choose a Sylvia Plath poem to analyse and I chose this one because I could easily understand it. It is clear that she is not happy and wants her life shortened.

A reader from the U.K has already noted that this poem is by Christina Rossetti, not Sylvia Plath. In fact, this is the first stanza of Rossetti's three-stanza poem. The fact that another author's work is ascribed to Plath makes me suspect of other poems in your site.
You should have removed Rossetti's poem from this site when you first became aware of your mistake! May I also add that this poem, as you present it, is not exactly as written by Rossetti.
