DAY! HELP! HELP! ANOTHER DAY! by EMILY DICKINSON

Poem Explanation Poet Analysis

Last Line: UPOON THINE ARROW HANG!

A Day! Help! Help! Another Day!
Your prayers, oh Passer by!
From such a common ball as this
Might date a Victory!
From marshallings as simple
The flags of nations swang.
Steady - my soul: What issues
Upon thine arrow hang!
