Notes About The Poem

e e cummings i shall imagine life

 

Review Sept 14

a cummings apt free verse personification presented LOWER CASE style as two quatrains... atypical short&to the point

Edward Estlin Cummings so inventive
penned poetry so sensitive
He loved to write in lower case style
interspersed by CAPITALS once in a while

 initialled as Edward Eselm
originality known throughout the poetic realm
In the vertical not horizontal
whose lower case was so unusual

e e cummings a poet, i be
 this is how i found my u s p
in verse to be so 'original'
lower case & in the vertical
