escape is such a thankful word ...

Posted on December 4, 2007 by Judith Meskill
"... Escape is such a thankful Word
I often in the Night
Consider it unto myself
No spectacle in sight
 
Escape -- it is the Basket
In which the Heart is caught
When down some awful Battlement
The rest of Life is dropt --
 
'Tis not to sight the savior --
It is to be the saved --
And that is why I lay my Head
Upon this trusty word -- ..."
 
Emily Dickinson
