Tell All the Truth But Tell It Slant

illustration by Михальская Мария

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant—
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth’s superb surprise
As Lightening to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind—

Tell All the Truth But Tell It Slant
by Emily Dickinson
