- Anger as soon as fed is dead,
- 'Tis starving makes it fat.
- Fame is a bee.
- It has a song--
- It has a sting--
- Ah, too, it has a wing.
EMILY DICKINSON, Fame is a bee
- Some keep the Sabbath going to church;
- I keep it staying at home,
- With a bobolink for a chorister,
- And an orchard for a dome.
EMILY DICKINSON, Some keep the Sabbath going to Church
- Tell all the Truth but tell it slant--
- Success in Circuit lies
- Too bright for our infirm Delight
- The Truth's superb surprise.
EMILY DICKINSON, Tell all the Truth but tell it slant--
- Surgeons must be very careful
- When they take the knife!
- Underneath their fine incisions
- Stirs the culprit--life!
EMILY DICKINSON, Surgeons must be very careful
- Shame need not crouch
- In such an earth as ours
- Stand—stand erect;
- The universe is yours.
EMILY DICKINSON, Not with a Club, the Heart is broken
