Emily Dickinson - A little east of Jordan
Work rating: Medium

A little east of Jordan,
    Evangelists record,
    A gymnast and an angel
    Did wrestle long and hard,
    Till morning touching mountain —
    And Jacob, waxing strong,
    The Angel begged permission
    To breakfast to return.
    "Not so," said cunning Jacob!
   "I will not let thee go
   Except thou bless me" — Stranger!
   The which acceded to,

   Light swung the silver fleeces
   "Peniel" hills beyond,
   And the bewildered gymnast
   Found he had worsted God!
