Emily Dickinson - I had some things that I called mine
|
I had some things that I called mine -- And God, that he called his, Till, recently a rival Claim Disturbed these amities. The property, my garden, Which having sown with care, He claims the pretty acre, And sends a Bailiff there. The station of the parties Forbids publicity, But Justice is sublimer Than arms, or pedigree. I'll institute an "Action" -- I'll vindicate the law -- Jove! Choose your counsel -- I retain "Shaw"! |
