Dramas Vitallest Expression Is The Common Day

Emily Dickinson

741

Drama's Vitallest Expression is the Common Day
That arise and set about Us-
Other Tragedy

Perish in the Recitation-
This-the best enact
When the Audience is scattered
And the Boxes shut-

“Hamlet” to Himself were Hamlet-
Had not Shakespeare wrote-
Though the “Romeo” left no Record
Of his Juliet,

It were infinite enacted
In the Human Heart-
Only Theatre recorded
Owner cannot shut-

(C) Emily Dickinson
