Thinking about Dickinson...

1 May 2018: "A love so big it scares her, rushing among her small heart — pushing aside her blood — and leaving her all faint and white..." --Emily Dickinson, Second "Master" Letter

I suppose that as National Poetry Month ends and we turn to May it makes sense that my Dickinson thoughts also turn away from her poetry and towards her poetic prose... You don't need a PhD to understand how stunning these pieces are. Look at those lines and what she is up to there. Amazing.
