Emily Dickinson's Collected Poems

Part One: Life 124. Remembrance has a rear and front

REMEMBRANCE.


Remembrance has a rear and front, --

'T is something like a house;

It has a garret also

For refuse and the mouse,


Besides, the deepest cellar

That ever mason hewed;

Look to it, by its fathoms

Ourselves be not pursued.
