About the Item

The Language of this work of art reads: "The Heart has narrow banks/ it measures like the Sea/ In mighty - unremitt- ing Bass/ And Blue Monotony/ Till Hurrican bisect/ And as itself discerns/ Its sufficient Area/ The Heart convulsive learns/ That Calm is but a Wall/ Of unattempted Gauze/ An instant's Push demolishes/ A Questioning - dissolve" #928 Emily Dickinson
