298 <br /> <br />Alone, I cannot be— <br />For Hosts—do visit me— <br />Recordless Company— <br />Who baffle Key— <br /> <br />They have no Robes, nor Names— <br />No Almanacs—nor Climes— <br />But general Homes <br />Like Gnomes— <br /> <br />Their Coming, may be known <br />By Couriers within— <br />Their going—is not— <br />For they've never gone—<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/alone-i-cannot-be/
