Hughes used Baskin's birds to illustrate
his books, like Crow, as he wrote between
his suicidal wives.
Plath dedicated

Domination. Sounds like damnation.
Baskin was a Jew, who maybe understood
them both. While
Hughes ate crow, two wives
who turned on gas breathed in, lay on the floor
like bronze, dead men.
