Anne Sexton integrates dark humor into her poetry as a means of confronting pain with clarity, intelligence, and emotional courage. Through irony, grotesque imagery, self-mockery, and satirical revision of cultural myths, she transforms personal and collective trauma into a form of poetic truth. Her humor does not offer escape; it demands attention.
