Freshness of Dickinson

I see Dickinson's poem as being fresh because of her wording and the meaning of the phrases. Starting from the last line, "The Truth must dazzle gradually Or every man be blind", she shows no other option but to ease into the truth, or else the person would be overwhelmed, as if being blinded. The capitalization of certain words also shows how she intends to emphasize certain words.
