Side One:
Band 1
This is my letter to the world
The soul selects her own society
Pain has an element of blank
Hope is the thing with feathers
I'm nobody! Who are you?

I'll tell you how the sun rose
I cautious scanned my little life

I reason, Earth is short
I never lost as much but twice

There came a wind like a bugle
Safe in their alabaster chambers
I years had been from home
Love is anterior to life

I cannot live with you
My life closed twice before its close

A toad can die of light!

I like to see it lap the miles

Before I got my eyes put out
To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee
A narrow fellow in the grass
Letter to Sally Jenkins, late December 1880

What soft, cherubic creatures
I taste liquor never brewed

Besides the autumn poets sing
The heart asks pleasure first
The sky is low, the clouds are mean
There's a certain slant of light

I felt a funeral in my brain
