Poem

According to Jen Bervin in the November 2013 issue of Poetry, "Emily Dickinson, one of the greatest American poets, wrote approximately 1,800 distinct poems within 2,357 poem drafts and at least 1,150 letters and prose fragments;a total of 3,507 pieces before her death at the age of 55.
Dickinson’s work has inspired numerous artists, and the Poetry Foundation currently displays a number of these artworks in an exhibition that gets its name from the Dickinson poem featured below.

"Forever – Is Composed of Nows "

Forever – is composed of Nows –
'Tis not a different time –
Except for Infiniteness –
And Latitude of Home –

From this – experienced Here –
Remove the Dates – to These –
Let Months dissolve in further Months –
And Years – exhale in Years –

Without Debate – or Pause –
Or Celebrated Days –
No different Our Years would be
From Anno Dominies –
