I wrote my sixth-year dissertation on her poetry and I always saw it as magical one moment and then quite bland the next. Sometimes it just can't really be figured out. She obviously was a troubled woman and that certainly comes through in her poems. I love 'Black Rook'. It's got to be my favourite.

She is kind of crazy though. I looked up to how she died and apparently she stuck her head in the oven and turned on the gas. O_o

Ya, she did. She was depressed. She's tried to kill herself before and had to go for electro shock therapy and everything. She was very troubled, but brilliant none the less.

With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise."
