one more one more

when sylvia
placed her head in an oven
having had enough
of this world
leaving her last manuscript
on the table,
her children in the bedrooms
sealed off from
the gas,
did she think that maybe
just maybe 
this isn't a good idea,
and wanted to run to the table
to write one more poem,
one more brilliant
piece,  one more effort
which wouldn't be her last?
