Whatever it is — she has tried it —

Whatever it is — she has tried it —
Awful Father of Love —
Is not Ours the chastising —
Do not chastise the Dove —

Not for Ourselves, petition —
Nothing is left to pray —
When a subject is finished —
Words are handed away —

Only lest she be lonely
In thy beautiful House
Give her for her Transgression
License to think of us —

Emily Dickinson

Noah and his family

Whatever it is — she has tried it —
Awful Father of Love —
Do not chastise Us —
Do not chastise the Dove —

We do not pray for Ourselves —
We pray Nothing —
When a subject is finished —
We have no Word —

Only lest she be lonely
In thy beautiful House
Allow her to think of us
for her Sin —

Emily is not in favour with Doves, except the loyal One Who dared to risk her life for her patriarch.
