The poem I felt a funeral, in my Brain by Emily Dickinson is a dream about the speaker’s death. This is evident because of the capitalization of brain in the line “I felt a funeral in my Brain,” In the poem the speaker does not only discuss the physical aspects of dying but also the process of mourning. ...
The poem follows a traditional New England funeral. ... The service is described to be like a drum and that is “…beating—beating—till I thought/ My Mind was going numb—“ Again, the repetition and the word numb shows how as they speak about her life the poet is aggravated that she has to leave it behind.
