Hi Alicia. This is very well done. Sylvia Plath was a tragic figure. Your poem combined with the image of her and the video are a well-working combo for the challenge. Hugs, Marilyn

This poem, A Bitter Ending, mixes the current astronomical occurrences with all other chatterings which suggest cataclysmic events are in play. Great!

I remember Ted Hughes, married to Sylvia Plath, I Heard he committed adultery, I heard her recite her poem 'Daddy' it was very downwind, and dark. I feel for you, on your own dear Alicia, I'll pray for you, bless you this Easter, blessings Roy

    Hi Roy! I heard they both wronged each other. You're very kind. Maybe life has a upswing in love for me soon. Thank you. God bless you :)

I am glad you were inspired by the Twitter Tweets to write this reaction to the pandemic. Silvia Plat Bot's words are frightening but appropriate under the circumstances. I admired your countering them with "love". Be safe and well- Joan

A very well-written poem about the twitter feeds provided for the NaPoWriMo challenge for the day. It seems that the people of the world become weirder and weirder by the day.

I used to like reading Sylvia Plath when I was in high school. That's a very interesting tweet that you chose to write about but these are depressing times so I understand. Poetry is a way to channel our truest feelings. Thanks for sharing!

    Hi Helen! I have never been a fan of Slyvia Plath. She was a popular read in NYC with the college crowd. However, I can handle her on a just quote basis. Lolz. So you're a fan. Very good. You're nice. Thank you :)

    I was a fan of Plath when I was in my teenage angst. Not so much now. ♥

Clever word-play and alliteration... vice of knives (credit to Plath or her followers?) ...witch spits spirits...Wry remark: God has proven the devil is his favorite. Cheers. LIZ (effects of evil shines s/b shine)
