how poetry re-entered my life, and how its here to stay
Essentially I came upon e.e. cummings again..
love is a place
& through this place o
flove move
(with brightness of peace)
all places
yes is a world
& in this world of
yes live
(skilfully curled)
all worlds
-e.e. cummings No Thanks 58
and
pity this busy monster,manunkind,
not. Progress is a comfortable disease:
your victim(death and life safely beyond)
plays with the bigness of his littleness
--electrons deify one razorblade
into a mountainrange;lenses extend
unwish through curving wherewhen till unwish
returns on its unself.
A world of made
is not a world of born--pity poor flesh
and trees,poor stars and stones,but never this
fine specimen of hypermagical
ultraomnipotence. We doctors know
a hopeless case if--listen:there's a hell
of a good universe next door;let's go
-ee cummings 1 x 1 [One Times One] XIV
This I can read for hours...if I had those hours...

i love cummings love poems, i think they are beautiful. i came across his poem, i love my body...some time back and he is just wonderful.
I actually came across cummings and shel silverstein at the same time,both of them have a wonderful casual writing style..
