Bind me - I still can sing -

Banish - my mandolin

Strikes true within -

Slay - and my soul shall rise

Chanting to Paradise -

Still thine.

Emily Dickinson #1005 (TJ)

Description,

You can try to put up every obstacle in my way (taking away my mandolin or slaying me), but you cannot stop me from creating, because the art lives inside my soul, and creating art is my paradise!
