"Faith" is a fine invention
When Gentlemen can see—
But Microscopes are prudent
In an Emergency.
From the beginning of the poem Dickinson informs the reader that at times people visualize "faith" as a an invention, something that man has made. The only times that refer to this situation is when someone understands and knows that their will be an answer to their problems. For instance, when someone needs to pay their car note, house note, phone bill, etc. and they know that they will be able to pay their expenses because of the money they receive from working, that's when the "faith" that they posses is a viewable object because there is no worries about fixing the problem. Lines three and four hit the opposite side of the subject's spectrum because when someone has to cover expenses and there is no solution to the problem, that's when it is a struggle for a person to find and see their faith. She uses "Microscopes" as metaphor to relate to the reader to perceive how sometimes people have to look deep within to find there religious faith and roots when they are in serious need of help.
I feel that from taking in what this poem relates, can make a person realize that through hard and good times you always have to understand what or who is blessing and will bless you. By getting the concept of the poem, it will make you a stronger person during difficult times and give you the strength and power to always believe and seek your faith.
