Kathryn Ugoretz reads "Poem 670" by Emily Dickinson
Emily Dickinson 670
One need not be a Chamber -- to be Haunted--
One need not be a House --
The Brain has Corridors -- surpassing
Material Place
Far safer, of a Midnight Meeting
External Ghost
Than its interior Confronting --
That Cooler Host
For safer, through an Abbey Gallop,
The Stones a'chase --
Than Unarmed, one's a'self encounter --
In lonesome Place --
Ourself behind ourself, concealed --
Should startle most --
Assassin hid in our Apartment
Be Horror's least.
The Body -- borrows a Revolver --
He bolts the Door --
O'erlooking a superior spectre --
Or More
