A description of the experience
The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson – Emily Dickinson
The soul has bandaged moments
When too appalled to stir
She feels some ghastly fright come up
And stops to look at her
Salute her with long fingers
Caress her freezing hair
Sip, goblin, from the very lips
The Lover hovered o’er
Unworthy that a thought so mean
Accost a theme so fair
