"'Hope' is the thing with feathers" is one of Emily Dickinson's most well known poems.

.

.Emily Dickinson is one of my brother's favorite poets. He's overseas in the military right now, and of course this poem makes me think of him.

In this episode, Ole Will gives Time a good old talking to.

I once attended a production of Romeo & Juliet put on by the theater department of Kansas State University, and it was excellent. I was in the Army at the time and always looking to be distracted from the goings on at my job, and Shakespeare was just the ticket to do that. I've loved his writing ever since.
