“Then a Plank in Reason‚ broke” Emily Dickinson’s poem “I felt a funeral in My Brain” is about a funeral service taking place in the speakers imagination.

Rasha‚ a 16-year-old Syrian refugee living in Turkey‚ is pessimistic about his future: “Now that I can’t go to school‚ it’s a tough situation…I work occasionally‚ filling in for my sisters at the factory.
