Poem

“The Minister – goes stiffly in –”

‘There’s been a Death, in the Opposite House’

“White – Unto the White Creator”

‘Publication – is the Auction’

“Though belongs to Him who gave it –”

‘Publication – is the Auction’

“That oppresses like the Heft / Of Cathedral Tunes –”

‘There’s a certain Slant of light’

“From that last Onset – when the King”

‘I heard a Fly buzz – when I died’

“As all the Heavens were a Bell”

‘I felt a Funeral, in my Brain’

“Were toward Eternity –”

‘Because I could not stop for Death’

“Yet – never – in Extremity, / It asked a crumb – of Me”

‘“Hope” is the thing with feathers’
