Emily Dickinson - One need not be a chamber to be haunted,
Work rating: Medium

One need not be a chamber to be haunted,
One need not be a house;
The brain has corridors surpassing
Material place.

Far safer, of a midnight meeting
External ghost,
Than an interior confronting
That whiter host.

Far safer through an Abbey gallop,
The stones achase,
Than, moonless, one`s own self encounter
In lonesome place.

Ourself, behind ourself concealed,
Should startle most;
Assassin, hid in our apartment,
Be horror`s least.

The prudent carries a revolver,
He bolts the door,
O`erlooking a superior spectre
More near.
