Such A Friend
*Line from: An Apprehension by Elizabeth Barrett-Browning

The palm of such a friend, that he should press
And be should not pass—but, we embrace clad
A hug that bears wealth of family's fad
I miss, as one beheld in the highest best,
an everlest; conditioning need fest.
To speak, that we part each other mad—
Why'd we'd less pyramid to pit unglad?—
And this is Love!, and what else loves no mess
Fo' two as We as God pit two to be?—
Be
come! It is evident an art
To accommodate what's accustomed to
as it pertains to me and you as We,
To herd such Love of us fresh from thy heart
For alle! What equals—or—comes close to?—
