    Me and Dave and Mount Olympus

    living on Mount Olympus? At the dawn of the 1980s, my first wife and I were in fact living in Fitzroy, a shabby inner suburb of Melbourne, Australia. Both of us were writers, misfits, snobs.

    Stanza 1 Summary Get out the microscope, because we’re going through this poem line-by-line. Line 1 I am silver and exact. I have no preconceptions. While "Sylvia" might sound a little bit like silver, we're pretty sure from this first-person declaration that Plath isn't the speaker in this poem.
