I live today, yet wonder why...
Oh, but still, it begs the question:
How much of me am I?...

Her words will flow through all of time....

Without titles she did versify

When it began.

(?) Emily Dickinson-
I know the cavalry of woe
Nations do not see.
None observe dying eyes,
No regards with love.
We trust in the angels
With feet and uniforms of snow....

Emily Dickinson,
always write for a reason,
her lines are lack in emotion,
but that fill me with passion.

a star and always her
constantly the moon in the garden
this wide paradise to me
where I declaim Emily Dickinson
syllable by syllable
to the happiness of the destinies
an eternal love...

we started with thomas hardy
we went onto dickinson
then onto wordsworth
as the clock 
ticks 
by 
the material makes me dry up like a leaf (that’s a simile) 
damn these poets and their puniness...

Upon the rising trail of moonlight
I seek the port in you—
a crook of ivory skin, an elbow
to moor my soul inside

Just as that once lonely moon
upon a field of black
does kiss and fondle gently
the flowing ebon tide...

I’m somebody!  Who are you?
Are you somebody too?
Then there’s a pair of us – do tell!
We must advertise – you know!

How dreary to be nobody!
More worthless than a frog
Who without a name - croaks all day
To be a bump on a log!...

I would dance upon the cratered moon,
for just one dance with thee.
I would sip the hemlock,
if touched by your lips the goblet be.
I would peculate the honeycomb,
and risk wrath of the bee,
if you had deigned to ask the honey
from impoverished me....

letters, words, verses
ink blossoms sprout from her pen
Em'ly Dickinson...
confined for years to her drawers
~ beds of enchanted flowers

I see you
In your flower
That I wear on my chest
I fully expect to bear you too
Angels know what’s best
Unsuspecting of my gaze
You hide yourself
In your flower
That’s fading from my chest
Diligently
 I feel you
Yes
It is
Loneliness


Ref
Emily Dickinson
"With A Flower"...

A little eye not made by man,
all woman seem to have.
Available to one, are honey bees.
Clinging to my window, butterflies.

If only screens were made back then,
the past, beyond tomorrow comes.
The voices heard inside my head one says,
honey sweet the bread is made today.


E.D....

Have someone caught your eyes
In mine?
Had anyone glimpsed
Our love?
There's one secret that I kept, 
But I'm dying to divulge.
Yesterday
I saw you
With her hands in yours
She gazed you the same way
As pearls to ocean floor.
If this is just to make me jealous 
Here are my wounds....
