I took my Power in my Hand (540) by Emily Dickinson
Performed by
Emily DickinsonI took my Power in my Hand (540) Annotated
I took my Power in my Hand—
And went against the World—
'Twas not so much as David—had—
But I—was twice as bold—
I aimed by Pebble—but Myself
Was all the one that fell—
Was it Goliath—was too large—
Or was myself—too small?
