The Colossus
Sylvia Plath
page 368
I think this poem is about a house. I could be wrong but there's some things about it that make me think that it's about a house like the last line "On the blank stones of the landing." If I'm right, I really like how the house is personified throughout the poem and compared to a Colossus in the title. Plath uses different body parts such as ears instead of windows. Of course it may not be a house at all and i may just be reading it completely wrong. I don't know.
