wow, now that I actually get to a poem I like, it is contaminated by these
stupid comments and retarded jokes that contain zero thought and zero
intelligence. If I was to categorize every response given on every poem on
this site I think I could present it to congress and give a very compelling
argument that the U.S. needs more funding for education, because this is
ridiculous. I can not believe the amount of idiotic responses and
comments. It is beyond me. I swear to god, I'm going to freakin' take a
giant dump on the next person who posts something stupid.

Jew...show some respect. You're most likely just jealous because he's a
brilliant poet and you are a retard in remedial school at age 23, if so,
grow up and learn some modesty.

Crane is so amazing. We are all blades of grass. We bend with the wind and
stand straight again as it fades. Here he is

You do realize that crane was an athiest right? Crane one pessemistic man,
a naturalist, and he certainly did not beleive in God. Read the poem more
deeply and you will catch his meaning. Crane is a great poet, another
example of his naturalistic idealogies is the poem "A Man Said To The
Universe".

Don't confuse simplicity with simplemindedness! This poem has great depth.
It reminds me that when I look at myself "warts and all," really, I'm 80%
warts. God, grant me the gift of perspective on my own life. It would be
much more comfortable NOT to think about all the ways I've fallen, and
those I've taken with me. Remind me when I'm living in the other 20%, that
what constitues a real triumph is to forget that triumph matters at all.

Crane has such imagination, bringing the image of mankind all swaying as
blades of grass. Such simplicity yet the one line at the end says so
much..
Crane is enjoyable to read, more should enjoy.
