Ilike to see it Lap the Miles" by Emily Dickinson ke to see it tap the miles
And lick the valleys up.
And stop to feed itself at tanks
And then, prodigious, step
Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads:
And then a quarry pare
To fit its sides, and crawl between
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza:
Then chase itself down hill
And neigh like Boanerges:
Then, punctual as a star,
Stop-docile and omnipotent-
At its own stable door.
