Of Glory not a Beam is left
But her Eternal House --
The Asterisk is for the Dead,
The Living, for the Stars --
“Of Glory not a Beam is left” (1685) by Emily Dickinson [w/ Audio]

of candle flame animates a

the early blooms
are wilted; they’ll be gone when
the tight buds open.

Deer [Lyric Poem]
In the forest, I saw a deer;
It sniffed the air with urgent fear...,
And then resumed its feeding,
Finding the threat of me misleading.
