The past is such a curious creature,
To look her in the face
A transport may reward us,
Or a disgrace.
Unarmed if any meet her,
I charge him, fly!
Her rusty ammunition
Might yet reply!
I am busy working to bring Emily Dickinson's "The past is such a curious creature" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the home page for other musical arrangements or learn more about Emily Dickinson's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "The past is such a curious creature" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
