Dickinson

For what it's worth, that version of the Dickinson poem that you've quoted has been adulterated by nineteenth-century editors spooked by the strangeness and originality of Dickinson's poetic form. (I find that classic poems that you find on the Internet rarely look the way that their authors probably intended.) The original is full of dashes and eccentric capitalization--it's worth tracking down.
