You Cannot Put A Fire Out
a poem by Emily Dickinson
You cannot put a Fire out—
A Thing that can ignite
Can go, itself, without a Fan—
Upon the slowest Night—
You cannot fold a Flood—
And put it in a Drawer—
Because the Winds would find it out—
And tell your Cedar Floor—

No.1 is my fav. but was it a ritual or a religious feast.
