A 🧵about #EmilyDickinson, my main crush ❤️, who was #BornOnThisDay 194 years ago.
She arguably was the greatest poet ever in the English language:
“Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.”

Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden.

When in disgrace with fortune & men’s eyes
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself & curse my fate
…
Haply I think on thee & then my state
Like to the lark at break of day arising…sings hymns at heaven’s gate

Just saw the new #SpikeLee film #Highest2Lowest w/ Denzel Washington & A$AP Rocky.
A fast paced thriller, the story line keeps you hooked. Spike Lee’s cinematography is gorgeous as always; Denzel is brilliant.
Yet, it is somewhat uneven & unlike Do the Right Thing, Lee turns away from youth & rap.
