It dropped so low -- in my Regard -- <br />I heard it hit the Ground -- <br />And go to pieces on the Stones <br />At bottom of my Mind -- <br /> <br />Yet blamed the Fate that flung it -- less <br />Than I denounced Myself, <br />For entertaining Plated Wares <br />Upon My Silver Shelf --<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-dropped-so-low-in-my-regard-2/
