A Plathian Moment

I had one today; they are rare now
And I, a non-believer, give thanks
For rare or not, I will never forget
how very deadly, the subtle,
Inexplicable mood manglers
Can be …

A pall of intense despair
Washes over me, and like Sylvia
I wonder dully, what I am doing
What the point of it all is
And why … why … why
