poppies in October; in this poem Nor the woman in the ambulance is Plath talking about her pervious attempts in suicide. red blooms means red heart or can be bleeding heart. her children are also represented by the sky in this poem. Carbon Monoxides, by eyes talks about what comes out of cars because the fog was in the sky. Oh my God, what am I is her asking a question of why do I deserve this. Cry open most likely talks about the grief she was in.
