In “To Paint A Water Lily” by Ted Hughes‚ a speaker contrasts the overwhelming amount of action and the stillness in a pond to illustrate the countless parts in nature that is difficult to capture as a whole. The speaker speaks for each aspect of the pond that is eventually put together as a whole in a painting to raise awareness of the chaotic side of nature that is usually left unnoticed.

Hughes demonstrates his perspective towards his destructive relationship with Plath through The Minotaur. Violence is evident in the very opening when Plath ‘smashed’ Hughes’ ‘mother’s heirloom sideboard – Mapped with the scars of [his] whole life’. Here Hughes is expressing the damage deep inside him than the physical destruction by Plath; that he too has childhood ‘scars’. Hughes suggests that Plath’s over-reaction and violence reflects her unstable mind by the word ‘demented’ revealing his helplessness
