Emily:Measure By Measure
consequence is my wage-
if I with vengeance wage
see more at Luke 6:38
note:
emily:is a 2(or sometimes 3) line paradox form(I labelled it thus,inspired by Emily Dickinson
poem 1732).It may or may not have a title,uses a word with separate meanings,(or one that
sounds the same,with a different spelling) with the intention to mean several things,therb to
enhance the thought's ambiguity/enigma.
ED 1732 begins: My life closed twice-
before it's close
SHAKESPEARE's Romeo& Juliet: ask for me tomorrow-
and you will find a grave
