From the joy and anguish of her own experience, Sexton fashioned poems that told truths about the inner lives of men and women. This book comprises Sexton's ten volumes of verse, including the Pulitzer Prize-winner Live or Die, as well as seven poems from her last years.

Poet

Feb 2, 2008

To A Great Poet

You can call me Poet. I am a woman who has many similar life experiences and diagnosis compared to Anne Sexton.I have had other, more devastating experiences. I was abused for many years. However, I have been blessed to live in a time when there are more curative and healing notions, in a time where people are allowed to speak frankly. Anne Sexton broke all the rules, for people like me. I regard her as a mentor and a heroine. Even though Anne Sexton did not have some of my abusive past, she did have a bleak future because of the nature phycotropic medicines and therapy at that time. My mother and father had these same problems, as did I and my son, for many years. This is a different time for us, it can become a new healing experience. If it were not for Anne Sexton's writing, I would not have the freedom I do now, in my own poetry, or even in my life. I am a poet who is mentally ill, like Anne. I wanted her complete works in order to honor her memory in the best possible way. I have dedicated much of my new work to her memory. You will read my works very soon. I am Poet...
