What if I say I shall not wait!
What if I burst the fleshly Gate
And pa** escaped—to thee!
What if I file this Mortal—off
See where it hurt me—That's enough
And wade in Liberty!
They cannot take me—any more!
Dungeons can call—and Guns implore
Unmeaning—now—to me
As laughter—was—an hour ago
Or Laces—or a Travelling Show
Or who died—yesterday!
