Poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

* * *

Much Madness is divinest Sense -
To a discerning Eye -
Much Sense - the starkest Madness -
’Tis the Majority
In this, as all, prevail -
Assent - and you are sane -
Demur - you’re straightway dangerous -
And handled with a Chain -

1. Good Night! Which Put the Candle out?
2. When I Hoped I Feared
3. Deed
4. The Shelter
5. Remorse
