Emily Elizabeth Dickinson was an American poet (10 December 1830 – 15 May 1886). Born in Amherst, Massachusetts, she lived a mostly introverted and reclusive life.
One Year ago—jots what?
God—spell the word! I—can't—
Was't Grace? Not that—
Was't Glory? That—will do—
Spell slower—Glory—
Such Anniversary shall be—
Sometimes—not often—in Eternity—
When farther Parted, than the Common Woe—
Look—feed upon each other's faces—so—
In doubtful meal, if it be possible
Their Banquet's true—
