POV

I read I heard a fly buzz by Emily Dickinson, and I think the POV and voice work together interestingly in this short piece. Because the piece is so short, Dickinson has to get her point across very quickly, and although it takes some analyzing, I think she does. Dickinson writes in the first point of view, and seems to be writing on her deathbed about what she feels and sees before she dies. I like how Dickinson writes simply, yet vividly describes how calms she feels before dying, overall an interesting piece that one could not easily write.
