A poem by Emily Dickinson

To Hang Our Head Ostensibly

________________________________________________
Title:     To Hang Our Head Ostensibly
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

To hang our head ostensibly,
And subsequent to find
That such was not the posture
Of our immortal mind,

Affords the sly presumption
That, in so dense a fuzz,
You, too, take cobweb attitudes
Upon a plane of gauze!








[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: To Hang Our Head Ostensibly
