Go back to The Heart asks Pleasure -- first --

Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)
The Heart asks Pleasure -- first --

The Heart asks Pleasure -- first --
And then -- Excuse from Pain --
And then -- those little Anodyness
That deaden suffering --

And then -- to go to sleep --
And then -- if it should be
The will of its Inquisitor
The privilege to die --

(#536)
