Emily Dickinson — I could suffice for Him I knew
643
I could suffice for Him, I knew
He—could suffice for Me
Yet Hesitating Fractions—Both
Surveyed Infinity
"Would I be Whole" He sudden broached
My syllable rebelled
'Twas face to face with Nature—forced
'Twas face to face with God
Withdrew the Sun—to Other Wests
Withdrew the furthest Star
Before Decision—stooped to speech
And then—be audibler
The Answer of the Sea unto
The Motion of the Moon
Herself adjust Her Tides—unto
Could I—do else—with Mine?
