Emily Dickinson By: Michael Gayton

Basic info She was born in Amherst, Massachusetts On December She was a recluse and hardly left her house. Her friends barely ever saw her they only wrote to each other.

Her poetry She wrote nearly 1800 poems. Her work was published after her death. Dickinson's poems are unique for the era in which she wrote; they contain short lines, typically lack titles, and often use slant rhyme as well as unconventional capitalization and punctuation.

God permits industrious angels GOD permits industrious angels Afternoons to play. I met one,—forgot my school-mates, All, for him, straightway. God calls home the angels promptly 5 At the setting sun; I missed mine. How dreary marbles, After playing Crown!

I went to Heaven I WENT to heaven,— ’T was a small town, Lit with a ruby, Lathed with down. Stiller than the fields 5 At the full dew, Beautiful as pictures No man drew. People like the moth, Of mechlin, frames, 10 Duties of gossamer, And eider names. Almost contented I could be ’Mong such unique 15 Society.
