Too Much has been written about similarities and contrasts between Whitman and Dickinson. The parallels between their lives do not stop coinciding, starting with the most decisive one: temporality.

Both lived in America in the same historical period, however, they sailed on two confronted shores in most of the vital aspects.  Republic her, democrat him; She an eternal little girl, he, an ancient, timeless voice. One with feet in the earth, another with soul in the clouds.

In particular, I choose to read two texts to give shape to the present essay. From Dickinson I chose the poem 324 as a key piece of the author to extol its gentle mischief that dares to contravene the strong customs of her world in strong sentences that try to explain her particular way of living, jumping between the madness and common sense.

This poem is full of capricious scripts and capitals, like the rest of his work, establishing a unique cadence in the genre: randomness that does not detract from the piece's quality but, on the contrary, fills it with meaning.

The metric of the poem alludes to the church hymns, it is in the style and content that is perceived as a challenge to the social conventions.

The rhyme is not strict in this poem, but for that reason, poetry lacks in other devices: it is sustained in the repetitions, the alliterations and the breaking of stanzas that make the poem flow from beginning to end.

From Whitman, I am moved by "I hear America singing," an explosion of naturalness and vitality. The poem is also a hymn to life and a first-person expression of the senses that the writer carries to the surface.

There is so much coincidence with Dickinson, but then the great difference that I establish lies in the strong verses, the metric freedom, the explosion of long and misaligned verses that sing eternal truths.

The early influence of Emerson was dropped on the pen of both authors who counted on him not only as a friend and counselor but as a Master. In the development of her themes, Dickinson is influenced by her secret loves, characters that guided her feelings intensely, although the story tells that in most cases the relationships that infuse her were platonic and ethereal.

For Whitman, however, it is his intense experience of humanity that urges him to sing. It is his pain in the flesh of the human beings who walk with him through the world and who then settle into his verses.

It is not only philosophy and romantic thoughts the material of these two writers, there is a political and social opinion of the times and facts that surround them, there is a break with whom they do not commune, a strong personality that does not change over time, rather It becomes stronger and concrete in their poetry.
