Quick note on "The Starry Night"

The poem I recited for class, "The Starry Night" by Anne Sexton, is hard to wrap your head around at first and almost sounds like pure gibberish the first time you read or hear it.  Buy since I had to completely memorize it, I had to read it quite a few times.  After reading it a couple dozen times, you start to understand it more.  It is truly a very dark poem.  Sadly, it doesn't revel much on the "why" Sexton wanted so badly to die, only the "how."  I encourage you all to re-read it if you enjoyed it.
