Died

“Each of us like you
has died once,
each of us like you
stands apart, like you
fit to be worshipped.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“I died for Beauty—but was scarce
Adjusted in the Tomb
When One who died for Truth, was lain
In an adjoining Room—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

“I say that Roger Casement
Did what he had to do,
He died upon the gallows
But that is nothing new.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
