Articles: Poetry | A wounded deer leaps highest
- Mr. Siri Siri
| |
A wounded deer leaps highest,
I've heard the hunter tell;
'Tis but the ecstasy of death,
And then the brake is still.
The smitten rock that gushes,
The trampled steel that springs:
A cheek is always redder
Just where the hectic stings!
Mirth is mail of anguish,
In which its cautious arm
Lest anybody spy the blood
And, 'you're hurt' exclaim
--Emily Dickinson
