   Summary

   "The second time I meant
   To last it out and not come back at all.
   I rocked shut

   As a seashell.
   They had to call and call
   And pick the worms off me like sticky pearls."

   - Sylvia Plath, "Lady Lazarus"

   "When her thoughts and memories seemed too real, too vivid (the stench of putrid flesh, bright, sweat-stained silks the colour of a lion’s gaping maw, raw wounded shades of red) she liked to imagine worms eating away at the scenes and images in her mind. The King’s face had been worm-eaten and ridden with holes long before soft pale maggots roosted in his flesh."
