Poem For The Day

By The Daily Dish

Nov 19 2008, 11:53 AM ET

Oregonjustinsullivangetty

Hope is a subtle glutton;
He feeds upon the fair;
And yet, inspected closely,
What abstinence is there!

His is the halcyon table
That never seats but one,
And whatsoever is consumed
The same amounts remain.

- Emily Dickinson.
