One of my favorite Emily poems:
| Part One: Life XLIV |
| THE SHOW is not the show, | |
| But they that go. | |
| Menagerie to me | |
| My neighbor be. | |
| Fair play— | 5 |
| Both went to see. |
An interesting New Yorker article about the film.

I really like that poem too. :-) My favorite of hers is "I'm Nobody! Who Are You?".
ReplyDeleteThere are so many that stick in your head, aren't there? I had my girls memorize "I never saw a moor," but they liked "I'm nobody" better!
DeleteI love Emily Dickinson's poetry and am looking forward to the film too. I need to pull out my collection and read some of her poems this month in honor of Poetry Month too!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fascinating character! William Luce's one-woman play The Belle of Amherst is wonderful! Both Julie Harris and Joely Richardson have performed it on Broadway, but just reading it is a great experience.
DeleteI cannot choose one favorite, there are just too many! the film looks really interesting.
