Explore "Time's Lesson" by Emily Dickinson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Mine enemy is growing old, -- / I have at last revenge.
The palate of the hate departs; / If any would avenge, --
Let him be quick, the viand flits, / It is a faded meat.
Anger as soon as fed is dead; / 'T is starving makes it fat.
