Whatever. If I couldn't even remember her name, what are the odds I'd get
the quote spot-on? But thanks for supplying the poet, it was driving me
nuts. I'm pretty sure she was the "Do not go gently" poet, too.

of one of Emily Dickinson's best-known poems: <i>Because I could not stop

No. Now this is going to drive me crazy. Not Edna St. Vincent-Millay, I
don't think. It's the poem that ends "Rage, rage, against the fading of
the light!" Not Browning. RRRRRRR. Who's the lady poet who wrote "Since
I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me"? I think it's her.
And absolutely no brain cells interested in helping me out and giving me
a hint of her name. I mean, I had to write a term paper about her. AAAAGH.
