Dickinson's poem, Savior, falls into place in the series of poems we have read so far. The overall theme is religious, as are the last four discussed. The style follows what has previously been seen, including capitalization and word breaks. It seems like a pretty average length for a Dickinson poem.

When reading "I'm Nobody" she is seemingly speaking to the next person that reads her poem. She's like a drifter trying to find her place, in way, and she feels she's just the bottom rung of the ladder, getting nowhere so far, and not much willing to see a bigger, more beautiful picture for herself.

If anything, it is at least complimentary to the style of "I never saw a Moor" and almost acts as a companion piece. She believes in a Savior, she believes in God, although as interpreted in "The Bible is an Antiquated Volume," she doesn't situate herself around regular church or Bible reading
