Dickinson > Whitman

I choose Dickinson because her poetry makes you think a lot. I enjoy her because you can tell in the few poems we have read that she wasnt doing it show off to other people. She was doing it for herself. The fact she was driven to write to express herself was great. HEr being locked up in the house is interesting to know. It gives more reason to point out her realism and passion as she wrote. Most people might find her crazy because she stayed in her house but that could of just been her way of being comfortable. Dickinson is a good female poet. :)
