T(r)oy's Marbles
the soul unto itself (683)
The Soul unto itself (683)
by Emily Dickinson
The Soul unto itself
Is an imperial friend --
Or the most agonizing Spy --
An Enemy -- could send --
Secure against its own --
No treason it can fear --
Itself -- its Sovereign -- of itself
The Soul should stand in Awe --

Greetings, Livia. Before I voice my thoughts on your question, I would be interested in what you think about the poem yourself.
Also, could you introduce yourself a bit? I'm quite certain we've not met before, so a brief description might be helpful in dialoguing.
Cheers,
Troy
