WATER IS TAUGHT BY THIRST.
LAND BY THE OCEANS PASSED.
TRANSPORT BY THROE
PEACE BY ITS BATTLES TOLD
LOVE, BY MEMORIAL MOLD
BIRDS, BY THE SNOW.

BY EMILY DICKINSON

THERE'S A CERTAIN SLANT OF LIGHT

THERE'S A CERTAIN SLANT OF LIGHT
WINTER AFTERNOONS
THAT OPPRESSES, LIKE THE HEFT
OF CATHEDRAL TUNES

HEAVENLY HURT, IT GIVES US
WE CAN FIND NO SCAR,
BUT INTERNAL DIFFERENCE,
WHERE THE MEANINGS, ARE

NONE MAY TEACH IT ANY
TIS THE SEAL DESPAIR
AN IMPERIAL AFFLICATION
SENT US OF THE AIR

WHEN IT COMES, THE LANDSCAPE LISTENS
SHADOWS HOLD THEIR BREATH
WHEN IT GOES TIS LIKE THE DISTANCE
ON THE LOOK OF DEATH
