Sickert To Them.

Blackbird, an online literature journal has a previously unpublished poem by Sylvia Plath called Ennui, a sonnet from her college years. I’m not sure I can read it correctly without actually reading it out loud but it is interesting. I wouldn’t want to suggest that the use of the word ‘jejune’ is self-referential; that would be consigning the poem to juvenilia wouldn’t it? I can have a go now I suppose.
