There is a certain unique and strange delight about walking down an empty street alone. there is an off-focus light cast by the moon, and the streetlights are part of the spotlight apparatus on a bare stage set up for you to walk through. you get a feeling of being listened to, so you talk aloud, softly, to see how it sounds.

Unique Moon Light

More From Sylvia Plath

There was just one moon. that familiar, yellow, solitary moon. the same moon that silently floated over fields of pampas grass, the moon that rose--a gleaming, round saucer--over the calm surface of lakes, that tranquilly beamed down on the rooftops of fast-asleep houses. the same moon that brought the high tide to shore, that softly shone on the fur of animals and enveloped and protected travelers at night. the moon that, as a crescent, shaved slivers from the soul--or, as a new moon, silently bathed the earth in its own loneliness. that moon.

There is a certain unique and strange delight about walking down an empty street alone.
Unique Delight Strange
The spectacle of the sky overwhelms me. im overwhelmed when i see, in an immense sky, the crescent of the moon, or the sun. there, in my pictures, tiny forms in huge empty spaces. empty spaces, empty horizons, empty plains - everything which is bare has always greatly impressed me.
Moon Sky Space
Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. it is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. a column and a column brings light between them. to make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.
Wall Artist Light
It's the loneliest feeling in the world-to find yourself standing up when everybody else is sitting down. to have everybody look at you and say, 'what's the matter with him?' i know. i know what it feels like. walking down an empty street, listening to the sound of your own footsteps. shutters closed, blinds drawn, doors locked against you. and you aren't sure whether you're walking toward something, or if you're just walking away.
Walking Away Doors Feelings
What was supposed to be so special about a full moon? it was only a big circle of light. and the dark of the moon was only darkness. but halfway between the two, when the moon was between the worlds of light and dark, when even the moon lived on the edge...maybe then a witch could believe in the moon.
