I Heard a Fly Buzz- When I Died” is the informal name for an untitled poem included in the volume, The Complete Poems by Emily Dickinson. In this poem, the narrator is on her deathbed, describing a chilling image of the progression of the narrator’s death.
In this classic poem by Emily Dickinson, the speaker is a dead person who is reflecting back on the last moments of her life, the moment of her death and the progression of her death. The setting of the poem can be observed as changing with each stanza, the first stanza provides the image of a deathbed with the narrator on it, reflecting upon her last moments, then the view magnifies to the mourning members and the setting changes to a room. The last stanza pulls us out of the room and the deathbed to provide a close-up of a buzzing fly, ending the poem with the narrator being in some dark, faraway place.
