I think that this poem is about how people tend to analyze and dissect
everything they can in this world. Here, he is showing how people not only
dont appreciate things such as love, but they try to find a scientific
explanation for it. To them, love isnt something beautiful, its just
another chemical reaction. BTW Thrice's song that uses this poem is
amazing!!!

"A living dance upon dead minds" is one of the best definitions of love
that has ever been put on paper. It is just as valid, just as intense and
intimate, in the spiritual realm as in the emotional realm.

valued descriptions.it is describing the beauty and also the pain of love

As I understand EE Cummings in this poem, I feel he is railing against the
smallness and disdain he feels toward people who are left brained, time
oriented and who exercise authority over creative right brained people. I
feel he is spiritually percieving love and its beauty and how overall, some
people who put the letter of the law above the spirit of the law are not
going to have the "last laugh" so to speak. He is expressing the triumph of
love that is intrinsically known and experienced just by feeling and
thinking about love, but also he is talking about the eternal aspects of
love too. He is a positve and spiritual thinker!!! I loved his statements
and the creative way he said them! I thank God for EE Cummings!

I'm a little dissapointed about the lack of comments. This is an amazing
poet and an amazing poem. I love e. e. cummings. Although, I admit, he is
a little difficult to figure out. I think the poem is talking about the
greatness of love and how it is often lost on society and all of its
rational, orderly, monotony. Love is still there, waiting to be freed to
do what its magic was made for. I could be wrong though, considering that
cummings usually writes very positively; but then I guess the poem is about
hope too. Even though love is falling upon deaf ears for the time being,
it isnt dead.
