With thee in the Desert-/With thee in the thirst-/…
-Emily Dickinson, Poem 201
Lane has Dhim’ as Thirst, Desire, Longing, and in a secondary sense, Interval between the Watering of Camels, or, Interval during which Camels are Kept from Water, and in the metaphorical, Interval between Birth and Death, so she may be onto something in this poem…the Desert is Life, and the interval between drinks, Dying.
