Half an Angleworm (World Poetry Day)

It's UNESCO World Poetry Day, an event which seems to be passing very quietly; but it has only been around since 1999.

In its honour, here is a classic from Emily Dickinson:

A Bird came down the Walk—
He did not know I saw—
He bit an Angleworm in halves
And ate the fellow, raw,

cont'd.
