American Literature – American Poetry – Emily Dickinson
< < < I wonder if the sepulchre
If I can stop one heart from breaking > > >

I worked for chaff, and earning wheat

I worked for chaff, and earning wheat

   Was haughty and betrayed.

What right had fields to arbitrate

   In matters ratified?

I tasted wheat, — and hated chaff,

   And thanked the ample friend;

Wisdom is more becoming viewed

   At distance than at hand.

If I can stop one heart from breaking > > >
