I Heard a Fly Buzz

I heard a Fly buzz 
   by Emily Dickinson
I heard a Fly buzz – when I died –  			I willed my Keepsakes – Signed away
The Stillness in the Room What portions of me be
Was like the Stillness in the Air –  Assignable – and then it was
Between the Heaves of Storm – There interposed a Fly – 
The Eyes around – had wrung them dry –        With Blue – uncertain stumbling Buzz –  
And Breaths were gathering firm Between the light – and me – 
For that last Onset – when the King And then the Windows failed – and then
Be witnessed – in the Room – I could not see to see –
