"A little bread -- a crust -- a crumb --
A little trust -- a demijohn --
Can keep the soul alive --
Not portly, mind! but breathing -- warm --
Conscious -- as old Napoleon,
The night before the Crown!
A modest lot -- A fame petite --
A brief Campaign of sting and sweet
Is plenty! Is enough!"
~ By Emily Dickinson ~

I really love you Emily.. I can always relate to you..
& I was born a hundred years after your death..
I've always felt that I've been in your room..
That I've sat on your very own chair..
& looked through your window..
I wonder where you are..
