    In Emily Dickinson’s “I Dwell in Possibility” she speaks of a “house” which is “fairer” than “prose”. Prose by definition is writing that is not poetry. “I dwell in Possibility- A fairer House than Prose” (Dickinson 879).

    Dickinson Whitman Compare Contrast The real distinction with Emily and Walt was that Emily had short and apparently straightforward ballads. In any case‚ Walt’s sonnets were long and frequently mind boggling. Emily’s works were considerably more discouraging then Walt’s written work was.

    Worse Than Death ——An Analysis of Irony in Emily Dickinson’s “I Felt a Funeral in My Brain” The whole poem was in the past tense‚ just like relating to the poet’s nostalgic retrospective‚ telling a story that truly happened to her. What’s so scary a part about the poem is‚ if without the first line‚ the major subject— a “Funeral” that Emily once went through by herself‚ offering readers an angle of view from their own coffins‚ alive. The poem‚ thus‚ has put up a question probably with no answer:

    Emily Dickinson’s (1830 - 1886) Poem “Success is counted sweetest” sends the message that success is tangible or intangible and has the highest value for “those who never succeed”.

Thus that twist offers that the understanding of the value of success is dependent on the point of view. The point of the first stanza is that the value of success feels the best to those who didn’t succeed for a long
