In the works of Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman, they point out some differences in their writings. In Dickinson's works, she shows that her works are short and simple poems, while Whitman's poems are often long and complex. With Dickinson showing that his works are short and simple, while Whitman brings a more sophisticated style, this really shows that they are using their own style of writing. In the works of Whitman and Dickinson, they are known for being unique and original artists, while people try so hard to imitate their style, but they are unable to accomplish it. Whitman wrote in ambitious proportions, while creating a style of rhythmic structure, creating complex stanzas and lines. By making his works synonymous, it truly recognizes him as a great American poet. With Whitman using free verse poetry, he was able to change the original idea of ​​structure with the rhythm of cadence, which helped people emphasize poetry as an expression. With Whitman, he uses an unorthodox type of structuring of his poetry; he traditionally does not have a type of length for his works of stanzas, poems or his verses. In Dickinson's case, she wrote with a set structure to her works. Dickinson's writing style used a ballad stanza, these were four line stanzas. So, comparing their two works, their structure is different. Another key difference between the two works is their use of rhyme in the works. In Whitman's poetic style there is no rhyme, while Dickinson exercises the idea of ​​slant rhyme. Slant rhyme is the use of approximate or close rhymes. In both of their works, the evidence can be seen through the structure in which they express themselves...... middle of paper ....... With Whitman using his free verse style, this can all at causes the works to be disorganized. His use of repetition often comes into play when he repeats the same phrase or word four times. Whitman's works take up the idea of ​​the human body and sexuality, which may frighten some readers. It introduces the idea of ​​worshiping the bodies of men and women, so compared to Dickinson, Whitman's work differs in style because he does not make his stories dark like Dickinson traditionally does with his works. So in the end, both Whitman and Dickinson have their distinct subjects, but they both try to convey their idea about God, about self, or about death and the human body, and about sexuality. They try to enlighten their knowledge on subjects and direct his mind towards the truth and what he truly believes to be right and what is wrong.
