She's a brilliant poet, this poem is from an anthology where she writes from the perspective of the female counterparts of famous male figures - in this case Freud. Have we ever wondered what it would actually be like to have to be the wife of such an influential figure? Especially Freud? This is from a presentation I did on him to give some context to the poem, enjoy!

Notes de l'éditeur
- The “father” of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud is best known for his tendency to trace nearly all psychological problems back to sexual issues.
- A famous Freudian innovation includes the therapy couch, the use of talk therapy to resolve psychological problems.
- While Freud's theories have always been controversial, his work forms a major portion of the foundations of modern psychology, with considerable modification by later theorists.When he published his theories he shocked the world by claiming that even infants had a sex drive and that (as in the Oedipal Complex) little boys become emotionally and sexually fixated on their own mothers -- while viewing their fathers as hated sexual rivals to be defeated or killed off.
- Freud also came to see personality as having three separate aspects, Id, Ego, and the Superego. All three needed to be well balanced to have good mental health. The Id contains basic needs and feelings, and is essentially the ‘pleasure principle.’ The Ego realizes that you cannot always get what you want, and is basically the ‘reality principle.’ Moreover, the Superego is the moral part of the mind, and usually strives for perfection, though the so-called perfection is typically far from reality.
- Freud thrived in an atmosphere of solidity and order in his home, as if he needed a firm foundation to explore the shifting timeless world of the unconscious. As he delved deeper into the mysteries of sexuality in his research, the passion faded from his marriage.
- Martha became the kind of wife Freud had hoped for; almost constantly pregnant for 9 years and giving birth, busy with home and family, raising their children and managing the household while Freud attended his medical practice and researched his theories.Domestic duties had replaced the passion Freud and Martha had expressed for each other. Settled comfortably in the routines of daily life, he was consumed by his work, but the ardor had disappeared from his marriage.
- Freud was a man of regular habits. He had his mustache and beard trimmed daily by his barber, strolled the boulevard each day, and played cards with the same group of friends every Saturday night. Highly conscious of his image, he was always faultlessly dressed. Above all, he loved a good cigar and smoked more than twenty a day. Every summer, Freud fled the heat of Vienna to vacation with his family in the Alps.In the end of August, 1899, Freud finished his book in a farmhouse in Berchtesgaden high in the German Alps, looking out on what would one day be the site of the vacation home of Adolph Hitler.
