The death of Sylvia Plath

The death of Sylvia Plath

There's a lady called Sylvia Plath
Who died by suicide,Ā 
In an ovenĀ 
She was my next door neighborĀ 
For a long time,Ā 
A long long time.Ā 
That bastard TedĀ 
He killed herĀ 
And the others
Wevill and the child ShuraĀ 
And the othersĀ 
That Ted, always fighting with herĀ 
Never leaving her aloneĀ 
Beating her
Hitting herĀ 
Torturing herĀ 
Deceiving herĀ 
Until that dayĀ 
She snappedĀ 
Kneeled before GodĀ 
And submitted herselfĀ 
To KingdomcomeĀ 
Hallowed be thy nameĀ 
Thy will be done
Give us this day our daily breadĀ 
And forgive usĀ 
Deliver usĀ 
From evilĀ 

[I cry]
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen
