TESTO DEL LIED

"Remorse is memory awake"
di Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)

Remorse is memory awake,
Her companies astir, -
A presence of departed acts
At window and at door.
It's past set down before the soul,
And lighted with a match,
Perusal to facilitate
Of its condensed despatch.
Remorse is cureless, - the disease
Not even God can heal;
For 't is his institution, -
The complement of hell.
