Plaith v Sexton

I found both of these poets, whom both committed suicide, to show signs of depression and exclusion in their poetry. In Plaith's Tulips I get the sense that she wants to stay in this hospital and that the tulips at her bedside table remind of the outside world she wants to avoid. In Sexton's Her Kind she compares herself to a witch. I believe that Sexton felt like an outcast and shows signs of depression in her works that probably lead to her suidice.
