Emily Dickinson, “My poetry so tight, make you beg to get wid me tonight, but you just keep on beggin, a’right? Cuz this lady is OUT-A-SITE!! And don’t you try to get up in here wid no queer beer, this lady deserves the fine wine, before you get to dine, and if you be kind, I might just give you a taste …”
