    In my opinion‚ Emily Dickinson as a transcendentalist used her poetry to describe the process of transcendental meditation‚ particularly the meditation of death. In this poem she tries to allow us to expierience our true nature by entering directly into our conscious. The poem is a deep seeking of the nature of death‚ the death that is a process of expansion and transformation from solidarity to a spaciousness. When she says: "I felt a funeral in my brain‚ and mourners to and fro‚ kept treading

This is proven on page when it says‚ “It is impossible to say how the idea first entered my brain; but once conceived‚ it haunted me day and night.” This is

    This morning is a typical Tuesday morning as I make my daily commute to work. The blue sky is bright with sun‚ but it is a brisk New England winter morning. As I drive down the highway drinking my coffee‚ I scan through the radio stations looking for my favorite songs desperately trying to get motivated for the day ahead.

    As I walked down the hallway‚ it seemed endless. I could not feel my feet hitting the ground‚ nor notice anyone around me. I just walked. The smell of the place was intoxicating. It reminded me of insulin or disinfectant spray. I entered her room; it was dark. The sound of beeping machines echoed in my ears. I walked to her bed. She was sleeping soundly. Her body was frail and looked as if she was bone covered with skin. She was weak and tired. The cancer had been eating away at her‚ slowly
