Poets/Poetesses/Poits: Persistent, isn't/aren't she/they?
A Bit of Emily...
Shall I take thee, The Poet said
To the propounded word?
Be stationed with the Candidates
Till I have finer tired -
The Poet searched Philology
And when about to ring
For the suspended Candidate
There came unsummoned in -
That portion of the Vision
The Word applied to fill
Not unto nomination
The Cherubim reveal -
-- Emily Dickinson's Poem's
(Final Harvest,
ed/sel by: Thomas H. Johnson)
(Ah Emily! If ever there was the true
incantation of the spirt of
the muses, 'tis she, indeed.
In deed,
in spirit,
in elan.
