I dwell in possibility
Oooh, what a delightful collection of verse. Emily Dickinson is a goddamn genius. Sooo good.
I DWELL in Possibility
A fairer house than Prose,
More numerous of windows,
Superior of doors.Of chambers, as the cedars—
Impregnable of eye;
And for an everlasting roof
The gables of the sky.Of visitors—the fairest—
For occupation—this—
The spreading wide my narrow hands
To gather Paradise.
