In case you were, like I was, shepherding Cub Scouts around on Saturday and missed the Prairie Home Companion broadcast, here’s a link to the Guy Noir send-up of Emily Dickinson. As expected, it’s pretty good. If you like that kind of thing. Which not everyone does.
(SHE SINGS) (TO “EVERYTHING’S COMING UP ROSES”)
I stay home. Every night.
I go around dressed in white!
I write poems — secretly—
And tonight I will get out of Amherst!Bring my horse!! Bring a mask—
I’m not going to tell so don’t ask—
I am thrilled — goodness me—
I am going to meet Henry at Walden.
