A River Between Chaos and Zen - Poetry Episode 12 - Emily Dickinson

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Max explores Mental Health and Emily Dickinson, her gregarious youth, and she went into seminary, which made her reclusive and did not leave her family's property.  Upon her death, she asked her sister to destroy her letters, but her poetry survived.  During her lifetime, only a few of her poems were printed, mostly anonymously, and her writings were published after her death. They have spoken to millions over the decades. Max reads:Because I Could Not Stop for DeathI Heard a Fly Buzz when I DiedA Narrow Fellow in the GrassThere's a Certain Slant of LightA Bird Came Down the WalkThe Soul Selects Her Own SocietyI Like to See it Lap in the Miles My Life Closed Twice Before it's Close Success is Counted, SweetestI Taste a Liquor Never BrewedAfter Great Pain, the Former Feeling ComesI Felt a Funeral in My BrainI Never Saw a MooreMuch Madness is Diviness SenseFor more on Creative Actors Lab, check our website, www.creativeactorslab.com.
