Further Poems of Emily Dickinson/Where Thou art—that is Home,
WHERE Thou art—that is Home,
Cashmere or Calvary—the same,
Degree—or shame,
I scarce esteem location's name
So I may come.
Cashmere or Calvary—the same,
Degree—or shame,
I scarce esteem location's name
So I may come.
What Thou do'st is delight,
Bondage as play be sweet,
Imprisonment content
And sentence sacrament,
Just we two meet!
Bondage as play be sweet,
Imprisonment content
And sentence sacrament,
Just we two meet!
Where Thou art not is Woe—
Though bands of spices blow,
What Thou do'st not—Despair—
Though Gabriel praise me, Sir!
Though bands of spices blow,
What Thou do'st not—Despair—
Though Gabriel praise me, Sir!
