A poem for you
from Patti Smith Hosted by Patti Smith
From The universe in Verse/ Brainpickings It troubled me as once I was— For I was once a Child— Concluding how an Atom—fell— And yet the Heavens—held— The Heavens weighed the most—by far— Yet Blue—and solid—stood— Without a Bolt—that I could prove— Would Giants—understand? Life set me larger—problems— Some I shall keep—to solve Till Algebra is easier— Or simpler proved—above— Then—too—be comprehended— What sorer—puzzled me— Why Heaven did not break away— And tumble—Blue—on me— Emily Dickinson This is a public episode.
