Submitted by marvel is my pen name.
Tulips by Sylvia Plath. It's extremely long but the beginning is my favorite:
The tulips are too excitable, it is winter here.
Look how white everything is, how quiet, how snowed-in.
I am learning peacefulness, lying by myself quietly
As the light lies on these walls, this bed, these hands.
I am nobody; I have nothing to do with explosions.
I have given my name and my day-clothes up the nurses
And my history to the anesthetist and my body to the surgeons.
