So they went down to Greenly Colorado

“Because I Could Not Stop For Death” Emily Dickinson During the start of the realist movement‚ Emily Dickinson wrote “Because I could Not Stop for Death‚” questioning the communal values of religion and eternity. The poem‚ at first‚ looks to be about the eternal afterlife‚ but with closer inspection of the language‚ (i.e. “Surmised” is a word of uncertainty) we find that she is actually not sure about the eternity of afterlife and all it entails.

The references to “he” and “her” in the first line are left unexplained‚ so that readers only come to know these characters through what happens in the poem. There is no further information given about why “it’s time to start packing‚” about where they are or why they have to leave. To some degree‚ they are leaving because‚ as the brief title of the poem states‚ they are “drifters‚” and as such it is in their nature to not stay in one place. It also feels as though the scene around the house
