Final answer:

Emily Dickinson's poems share similarities with found poetry in terms of rhythm and language usage.

Step-by-step explanation:

Many of Emily Dickinson's poems share similarities with found poetry in terms of rhythm and language usage. Found poetry is a form of poetry that involves using existing texts, such as newspaper articles or advertisements, and rearranging them to create a new poem. Similarly, Dickinson's poems often have a fragmented, unconventional structure and use everyday language in a unique way. For example, her poem "A narrow Fellow in the Grass" has a rhythm and repetition that resembles found poetry:

I think the example of the found poem you gave was perfect, she is breaking the EM rules by taking the phrase "narrow Fellow in the Grass" which compliments the hymn-like repetition that is also found in found poems.
