261 <br /> <br />Put up my lute! <br />What of—my Music! <br />Since the sole ear I cared to charm— <br />Passive—as Granite—laps My Music— <br />Sobbing—will suit—as well as psalm! <br /> <br />Would but the "Memnon" of the Desert— <br />Teach me the strain <br />That vanquished Him— <br />When He—surrendered to the Sunrise— <br />Maybe—that—would awaken—them!<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/put-up-my-lute/
