hey, emily dickinson...


the stranger...

the silence between the stranger and cause,
for potential sake, illuminated in darkness,
controls the structuring of imperfect words,
if only for matters of obvious importance...

while the stranger may die for truth,
the cause will die for beauty unspoken,
with words never to have been heard
by the ear of them who did truly love.

for they were lost in the darkness, forever...

and while the stranger shows no understanding,
still he mourns...

but, for her,

rather,

than himself...
