280 Emily Dickinson was a normal child who had a normal childhood, playing with children, going to parties etc. When she grew older around the age of 30 she completely withdrew herself from the outside world. Even people who she loved could only speak to her through the other side of a partly open door. This is where she sat down and wrote a lot of poetry. As you will see in the following critique the poems that she wrote during her time in her room were wild and filled with puzzling themes. The poem starts off by discussing a funeral in the speaker’s head saying “I felt a Funeral in my brain.”(Pg 1932) Although people do not feel funerals, certainly not in the brain, the poem thus starts of with a sense of insanity, emotional uncertainty, or death.
