Color – Caste – Denomination – (970) by Emily Dickinson – Poems
I measure every Grief I meet With narrow, probing, eyes – I wonder if It weighs like Mine – Or has an Easier size. I wonder if They bore it long – Or did it just begin – I could not tell the Date of Mine – It feels so old a pain – I wonder if it hurts to live – And if They have to try – And whether – could They choose between – It would not be – to die – I note that Some – gone patient long – At length, renew their smile – An imitation of a Light That has so little Oil – I wonder if when Years have piled – Some Thousands – on the Harm – That hurt them early – such a lapse Could give them any Balm – Or would they go on aching still Through Centuries of Nerve – Enlightened to a larger Pain – In Contrast with the Love – The Grieved – are many – I am told – There is the various Cause – Death – is but one – and comes but once – And only nails the eyes – There’s Grief of Want – and grief of Cold – A sort they call “Despair” – There’s Banishment from native Eyes – In sight of Native Air – And though I may not guess the kind – Correctly – yet to me A piercing Comfort it affords In passing Calvary – To note the fashions – of the Cross – And how they’re mostly worn – Still fascinated to presume That Some – are like my own –
Emily Dickinson’s “Color – Caste – Denomination” and Arna Bontemps’ “God Give to Men”
Poetry became my passion after I fell in love with Walter de la Mare’s “Silver” in Mrs. Edna Pickett’s sophomore English class circa 1962.

Emily Dickinson’s Titles Emily Dickinson did not provide titles to her 1,775 poems; therefore, each poem’s first line becomes the title. According to the MLA Style Manual: “When the first line of a poem serves as the title of the poem, reproduce the line exactly as it appears in the text.” APA does not address this issue.
Human Classifications: Two Views
The two poems featured in this commentary, Emily Dickinson’s “Color – Caste – Denomination” and Arna Bontemps’ “God Give to Men,” take as their theme the issue of the classifications that humanity has through the centuries imposed upon itself.
While there are many ways that human beings identity themselves, three common ones are race, class (social status), and religion; thus, Dickinson has labeled the classes “color,” (race), “caste,” (class, social status), and “denomination” (religion).
Arna Bontemps has concentrated primarily on the first classification, color. He refers to the skin color for two of the classes—”yellow” and “black”—but then uses eye color for the third class—”blue-eyed.”
The poets have handled the issue of human classification in two very different ways: (1) Dickinson’s drama serves to unite all human classes, as her speaker insists that each human being is a soul without any of the outward classifications with which humanity has burdened itself.
(2) Bontemps’ speaker remains squarely focused on the issues that he finds repugnant or venal in each color class. As the speaker asks God to give certain gifts to men, he reveals his animosity toward two of his designated classes. The third class receives rather short shrift in an ironic attempt at humility.
Dickinson’s ultimate truth is based on the individuality of each human being, while Bontemps relies heavily on racial stereotypes. Stereotypes serve only to divide, not unify, for not all members of any so-called classification represent the concocted stereotype that attempts to define and describe that class.
Text of Emily Dickinson’s “Color – Caste – Denomination”
The speaker in Emily Dickinson’s “Color – Caste – Denomination –” (#970 in Thomas H. Johnson’s Complete Poems) demonstrates a profound understanding about the futility of human classifications based on race, class, religion, and sex.
The theme of this poem is likely influenced by Galatians 3: 28: “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.”

Reading of “Color – Caste – Denomination –”
This speaker is demonstrating the futility of humanity’s self-classification that is still today widely and tragically misconstrued.
First Stanza: The Delusion of Classification
Color – Caste – Denomination –
These – are Time’s Affair –
Death’s diviner Classifying
Does not know they are –
The perspicacious speaker begins with an audacious claim: the human soul possesses no ordinary identities associated with race, class, or religion. By extension, one would realize that if those common classes are null, so is the classification by sex and/or sexual orientation.
This speaker perceives that those classifications are merely delusion resulting from the mayic realm of the operative pairs of opposites which have their being under time’s sway: “These – are Time’s Affair.”
The fact that these classifications vanish after death demonstrates that they are merely delusive tools, useful only, if useful at all, to the material level of existence.
The soul is “Death’s diviner Classifying,” and Death cannot classify the living. When Death attempts to classify the soul, it finds that the soul’s purity lacks those limiting qualities that humanity assigns itself.
Second Stanza: A Dreamer’s Awareness
As in sleep – all Hue forgotten –
Tenets – put behind –
Death’s large – Democratic fingers
Rub away the Brand –
The speaker, desiring to further clarify her claim, then compares “death” to “sleep”—in sleep, the human being forgets his race, class, religion, and sex. These “tenets” are abandoned and the sleeper, if he dreams, may dream himself a different race, class, religion, or sex, and as long as he dreams those classes will seem to be reality.
Sleep, like Death, has “large – Democratic fingers” that are capable of erasing the marks of human classifications that circumscribe the individual in ordinary, waking consciousness. The dreamer understands his images and relates to them exactly as he does while awake.
Third Stanza: The Unclassifiable Soul
If Circassian – He is careless –
If He put away
Chrysalis of Blonde – or Umber –
Equal Butterfly –
The Circassians comprised a civilization in Diaspora, routed by the Russians and the Ottoman Empire. Their classifications would be tenuous at best; thus, their ability to classify themselves would be quite difficult, as many other civilizations have experienced.
Peoples who live in contiguity to conquering peoples have found it difficult to maintain a unified identity; such has also been the lot of the Jewish people. But even the “Circassian” who attempts to identity his classification would find that like a butterfly, whether it be “Blonde – or Umber,” he would still remain “Equal Butterfly.”
The usefulness of names on the material plane can never taint the soul. The soul remains perfectly unclassifiable by mayic limitations. This speaker finds solace in this awareness, and only those steeped in identity politics finds it abhorrent even unto and into the twenty-first century.
Fourth Stanza: Delusive Limitations of Race, Class, Religion, and Gender
They emerge from His Obscuring –
What Death – knows so well –
Our minuter intuitions –
Deem unplausible –
Each human soul is not “obscured” by any attempt to classify it by the delusive limitations of race, class, religion, or sex. Death knows this, the speaker again emphasizes. Even the tiniest inference that the human mind makes regarding that futile act of classifying will remain “unplausible.”

Introduction and Text of “God Give to Men”
Arna Bontemps’ “God Give to Men” disguises its bitter irony in a prayer, in which the speaker seems to be asking God for certain gifts for each of the three types of men, “the yellow man,” “blue-eyed men,” and “black man.”
However, he speaker is simply engaging stereotypes of each classification of humanity as he beseeches the Creator to grant each type of man a particular set of appointments.
The speaker’s subtle but bitter irony reveals his contempt as he denigrates the two classifications of which he is not a member. The speaker belongs to the class he designates as “black man,” and yet the gifts he asks of God for the black man also offers only a stereotype.
And while the speaker tells God he need not bother too much with this third group, he demolishes that request by asking that God give the “black man” a fresh drink of “meed,” metaphorically representing “his cup of tears.”
Thus, while the speaker asks for rather innocuous items for the “yellow man” and the “blue-eyed men,” he asserts full dominion over the range of emotions that humanity experiences from joy to sorrow through laughter and tears.
By stereotyping each group of “men,” the speaker offers nothing of substance regarding each group, but he has clearly demonstrated his own animus toward those other groups.
God Give to Men
God give the yellow man
an easy breeze at blossom time.
Grant his eager, slanting eyes to cover
every land and dream
of afterwhile.
Give blue-eyed men their swivel chairs
to whirl in tall buildings.
Allow them many ships at sea,
and on land, soldiers
and policemen.
For black man, God,
no need to bother more
but only fill afresh his meed
of laughter,
his cup of tears.
God suffer little men
the taste of soul’s desire.
In this poem, the speaker puts on display stereotypes that he holds regarding three groups of humankind.
First Stanza: The Yellow Man
God give the yellow man
an easy breeze at blossom time.
Grant his eager, slanting eyes to cover
every land and dream
of afterwhile.
In the first stanza, the speaker asks God to grant “the yellow man” gentle winds as he engages his “slanting eyes” observing the beauty of “blossom time.” He then asks that this yellow man be afforded the prescience to peer into the “afterwhile.”
The two gifts that the speaker is asking from God for the “yellow man” reveal two stereotypes that Westerners entertain regarding their Eastern brothers and sisters. The first gift of “an easy breeze at blossom time” shows that the speaker has been influenced by Japanese and Chinese fine paintings that depict delicate “blossoms.”
In his second gift to the “yellow man,” the speaker is engaging the stereotype that assumes all Asians adhere to the tenets of reincarnation and karma. He wishes God to grant this Eastern man the ability to see with his “slanting eyes” “every land and dream / of afterwhile.”
The magnanimity of both these gifts, however, is diminished by the mere fact that both gifts are based on stereotypes, not the individual heart-felt desire that each human being be given appropriate gifts from God. But the insincerity of these stereotypical gifts becomes more than merely trivial. The speaker is denigrating these yellow men as engaging in mere frivolity.
Second Stanza: The Blue-Eyed Man
Give blue-eyed men their swivel chairs
to whirl in tall buildings.
Allow them many ships at sea,
and on land, soldiers
and policemen.
For the “blue-eyed men,” the speaker asks that God give them skyscrapers with office equipment, as well as mighty navies and armies with “soldiers” as well as “policemen.” Again, as with the yellow man, the speaker employs a mere stereotype to designate which two gifts he thinks God should grant.
The first gift that God should grant the blue eyes is the comfortable chairs in office buildings that are tall. The speaker is presenting the stereotype that blue-eye men are materialists who work in offices with “swivel chairs” in “tall buildings.”
The second gift of vast military force and police officers again stereotypes the “blue-eyed men” as interested only in power and force. By honing in on these two particular gifts instrumental in the use of force, the speaker reduces those men with blue eyes to power hungry monstrosities.
Third Stanza: The Black Man
For black man, God,
no need to bother more
but only fill afresh his meed
of laughter,
his cup of tears.
The speaker then asks God’s gift to the “black man” be nothing special—just let him laugh plenty and cry as needed. The speaker’s own classification dictates that he suffer the other classes to precede his own, as he and his group remain humble. But the humility remains a mere façade as the bitter irony of the speaker’s requests has demonstrated his scant knowledge of those groups, including this own.
A stereotype can describe only a surface level of qualities, for example, the notion that black people all have rhythm and love watermelon become ludicrous after observation of real individuals forming this group. Yet less obnoxious stereotypes are just as insidious, as they stand in for individual knowledge and mask ultimate reality.
Fourth Stanza: Suffering Their Desires
God suffer little men
the taste of soul’s desire.
The fourth stanza consists of only two lines that ask a generalized gift from God. The speaker wishes that each man of each group “suffer” “the taste of soul’s desire.” Essentially, the speaker is asking God make sure each of these “little men” are afflicted with whatever punishment they deserve for entertaining the desires that they hold.
The speaker has assigned each group of men a “soul’s desire” by asking God to grant them their wishes: the yellow man wants to experience pretty flowers and contemplate the after life; the blue-eyed men wish to accrue wealth and power; the black man just wants to laugh and cry as he sees fit.
The speaker is demonstrating the animosity that he holds toward the classes of men not his own through a subtle, bitter irony that loses its heft because of the focus on stereotypes.

Thank you, Raj–
Dickinson’s poetry always offers such profundity as well as entertaining turns of phrase that one cannot help but come away with a new thought and a smile or two. She surprises as often as she teaches as she reminds the heart and mind of their own dear experiences. And, of course, that what all truly great poetry does for its readers.
