I will choose to talk about “712” and “465” of Emily Dickinson’s poems for contrasting Whitman’s “Song of Myself”. Whitman and Dickinson have three differences of characteristics in their poems.

An Analysis of Emily Dickinson Studying the poetry of Dickinson is like journeying through the poet’s life. I spare no compliment and sympathy to compare Dickinson to a lost angel‚ who descended upon the world but was wounded by the foul realities.

Emily Dickinson’s poem “I’m Nobody! Who are You?”‚ gives the word “nobody” a whole new meaning. She uses distinctive punctuation and wording to suggest that being well-known in life is not as great as it seems.
