A NARROW FELLOWTM is a journal of poetry printed twice each year.The name of our journal comes from one of Emily Dickinson's best-read
poems about a narrow fellow in the grass.
A NARROW FELLOW was announced as the local best selling fiction title, coming in ahead of Caroline Kennedy's Poems To Learn By Heart
and Wendell Berry's The Country of Marriage

A narrow fellow in the grass
Occasionally rides;
You may have met him, ? did you not,
His notice sudden is.
The grass divides as with a comb,
A spotted shaft is seen;
And then it closes at your feet
And opens further on.
He likes a boggy acre,
A floor too cool for corn.
Yet when a child, and barefoot,
I more than once, at morn,
Have passed, I thought, a whip-lash
Unbraiding in the sun, ?
When, stooping to secure it,
It wrinkled, and was gone.
Several of nature's people
I know, and they know me;
I feel for them a transport
Of cordiality;
But never met this fellow,
Attended or alone,
Without a tighter breathing,
And zero at the bone.
