He fumbles at your Soul As Players at the Keys Before they drop full Music on- He stuns you by degrees- Prepares your brittle Nature For the Ethereal Blow By fainter Hammers- further heard- Then nearer- Then so slow Your Breath has time to straighten- Your Brain- to bubble Cool- Deals- One- imperial- Thunderbolt- That scalps your naked Soul-
When Winds take Forests in their Paws- The Universe- is still- Emily Dickinson
