Emily Dickinson

Idiosyncrasy- a characteristic, habit, mannerism, or the like, that is peculiar to an individual.

This poem was fun to read because of it’s sing-songy rhyming scheme, and also because it is humorous, and also because it makes a very good point. Emily Dickinson’s work is confusing and hard to read sometimes, but since she was so good at what she did, she got away with it.
