Sylvia Plath uses her poem, Daddy, to express deep emotions toward her father?s life and death. With passionate articulation, she verbally turns over her feelings of rage, abandonment, confusion and grief. Though this work is fraught with ambiguity, a reader can infer Plath?s basic story. Her father was apparently a Nazi soldier killed in World War II while she was young. Her statements about not knowing even remotely where he was while he was in battle, the only photograph she has left of him and how she chose to marry a man that reminded her of him elude to her grief in losing her father and missing his presence. She also expresses a dark anger toward him for his political views and actions in such passages as: ?Not God but a swastika / so black no sky could squeak through? and ??the brute / Brute heart of a brute like you.? She goes on talk about how her poor or non-existent relationship with her father caused her to enter an unhealthy relationship. Finally, she conveys a mood of overcoming this man?s dark hold on her. She is still filled with unhealthy rage toward him but in her repeating that she is ?through? and discussing having killed someone she demonstrates her feelings of self-empowerment.
As Plath is using this poem as her personal forum to release her emotions, she also provides her audience with a look of her artistic style. She creates a poem that will enthrall the reader using mediums like vague material such as stanza two (2):
She also uses quite a bit of repetition to emphasize her points. A repeated word tends to offer a high level of exaggeration. She does not use repeated sounds so much as words or phrases that allow the audience to almost picture a woman screaming angrily. She also presents a slight rhythm to the reading that allows for smooth reading. In keeping with her open form, there is no set scheme to the rhyme pattern. However, there is a single ending sound constantly repeated without a set pattern throughout the work. She also connects pairs of lines at random just for the sake of making connections to make that particular stanza flow. At the same time, she chose blatantly not to rhyme in certain parts to catch the reader?s attention.
There are a few instances where imagery is used to carry out Plath?s expression. To cite a particular example that might lead a reader deduce their own ideas can be found in the last stanza: ?And the villagers never liked you. / They are dancing and stamping on you.? This undoubtedly expresses her father?s death and burial but more importantly it states a certain humiliation she faced from everyone knowing what her father had died for, along with her own rage toward him. Another can be found in lines 24-25: ?I never could talk to you. / The tongue stuck in my jaw.? The picture of someone being tongue-tied along with her statement in line 41: ?I have always been scared of you,? demonstrate just that; she was fearful of her father. She also gives an image that provides the reader a view of how Plath physically viewed her father and chose a man that she states reminds her of him: ?A man in black with a Meinkampf look.? As most victims or people with poor self-esteem, she chose to place herself in the same unpleasant life as she had had with her father by marrying a man that was just like him. She repeatedly talks of the color black expressing her dark perspective of her father and life in general. She also uses language that portrays darkness without using colors, for example in lines 71-73:
?If I?ve killed one man, I?ve killed two-
This passage eludes that she may or may not have actually killed her husband and in doing so conquered her father in a sense. Nevertheless, it demonstrates her dark perspective of her marriage in describing her husband as a vampire that continually tortured her.
Plath?s work in the poem is undoubtedly bold and expressive. She uses a passion that makes her point clear even though her language may not necessarily be so obvious. She allows her readers to ride the roller coaster of battling her emotions with a freedom that suggests the piece was written for strictly personal expression; never to be read by others. The majority of the poem may certainly even be open for a variance of interpretations providing for a truly interesting work.

Barely daring to breathe or Achoo.5
And a head in the freakish Atlantic
Where it pours bean green over blue
In the waters off beautiful Nauset.
In German tongue, in the Polish town
But the name of the town is common.
A Jew to Dachau, Auschwitz, Belsen.
The snows of the Tyrol, the clear beer of Vienna
With my gipsy ancestress and my weird luck
And my Taroc pack and my Taroc pack
With you Luftwaffe, Your gobbledygoo.
So black no sky could sqeak through.
Brute heart of a brute like you. 50
You stand at the blackboard, daddy,
A cleft in your chin instead of your foot
But no less a devil for that, no no
I thought even the bones would do. 60
But they pulled me out of the sack,
And they stuck me together with glue.
A man in black with a Meinkampf look 65
And a love of the rack and the screw.
The black telephone?s off at the root,
The voices just can?t worm through.70
