The harm of Years is on him —

The harm of Years is on him —
The infamy of Time —
Depose him like a Fashion
And give Dominion room.

Forget his Morning Forces —
The Glory of Decay
Is a minuter Pageant
Than least Vitality.

Emily Dickinson

A Morning Glory

The Damage of Time is on him —
Becuse of quick Aging —
Depose him like a Fashion
And give him the Tomb.

Forget his Morning Forces —
The falling Glory
Is a smaller Show
Than least Vitality.
