of naming that which we cannot touch
of supposing fibrous wisp to be torso /
tiger / palace shifting across pure palette
of sky / loneliness or love or pride
called out in thin disguise?"

True, like the Tomb
Who tells no secret
Told to Him -
The Grave is strict -
Tickets admit
Just two - the Bearer - and the Borne -
And seat - just One
The Living - tell -
The Dying - but a syllable -
The cot Dead - None
No Chatter - here - No Tea
So Babbler, and Bohea - stay there -
But Gravity - and Expectation - and Fear
A tremor just, that all's not sure
Emily Dickinson

A few years ago I created a kind of blog anthology of 101 Irish women poets dating from the 1700s to the mid 1900s, most of them more or less forgotten. You can find it here:
