The poem "Poppies in July" describes the speaker looking at a field of poppies and feeling exhausted by them. The poppies represent both beauty and danger, with their small red flowers likened to both fondness and "hell flames." The speaker wants to immerse herself in the poppies' effects to escape her troubled mind and deep depression, which seems linked to past difficulties in her marriage. She envisions the poppies' opiates dulling her senses and providing much-needed calmness and stillness.
