i really like Cummings. Actually, i just ordered his 100 selected poems book.
my favorite by Cummings is this one:
who knows if the moon's
who knows if the moon's
a baloon,coming out of a keen city
in the sky--filled with pretty people?
(and if you and i should
get into it,if they
should take me and take you into their baloon,
why then
we'd go up higher with all the pretty people
than houses and steeples and clouds:
go sailing
away and away sailing into a keen
city which nobody's ever visited,where
always
it's
Spring)and everyone's
in love and flowers pick themselves.
that ending line always hits me. Cummings has great ending lines. The one w/ Spring not breaking a thing is also great.
