Pain has but one Acquaintance
Pain has but one Acquaintance And that is Death -- Each one unto the other Society enough.
Pain is the Junior Party By just a Second's right -- Death tenderly assists Him And then absconds from Sight.
Emily Dickinson
Pain has but one Acquaintance And that is Death -- Each one unto the other Society enough.
Pain is the Junior Party By just a Second's right -- Death tenderly assists Him And then absconds from Sight.
In a few terse lines, Dickinson imagines pain and death as two figures keeping each other company. Pain has no other acquaintance but Death, and the two are perfectly sufficient society for one another.
