      Coming Soon!

      There is no Frigate like a Book
      To take us Lands away
      Nor any Coursers like a Page
      Of prancing Poetry –
      This Traverse may the poorest take
      Without oppress of Toll –
      How frugal is the Chariot
      That bears a Human soul.”
      ― Emily Dickinson
