I rewatched Dead Poets Society a few weeks ago and felt inspired to write this contrapuntal poem :)

Out of The Morning — Emily Dickinson

Will there really be a morning?

Is there such a thing as day?

Could I see it from the mountains

If I were as tall as they?

Has it feet like water-lilies?

Has it feathers like a bird?

Is it brought from famous countries

Of which I have never heard?

Oh, some scholar! Oh, some sailor!

Oh, some wise man from the skies!

Please to tell a little pilgrim

Where the place called morning lies!

a poem inspired by bartylus

my spine split from carrying us up the hill

wet through my clothes

weary bones caught the chill

i stopped tryna make him laugh

stopped tryna drill the safe

they killed all the fish in the ocean

they’ll kill all the fish in the land

and when they run out of space in the dirt

they’ll bury bodies in the sand
