Read 2565 times on American Poems.
what i liked about e.e. cummings
was that he cut away from
the holiness of the
word
and with charm
and gamble

away
in the old
tired
manner.
of course, then came... (Read full poem)

The image, as in a Hexagram:
The hermit locks his door against the blizzard.

What was not, should be thrown away.
In spring he... (Read full poem)

We smile at each other
and I lean back against the wicker couch.

a ball of yellow light falls to the floor
and burns a hole through... (Read full poem)

as a cloudless sky.
Time then to make a

Or I

You may think, passer-by, that Fate
Is a pit-fall outside of yourself,
Around which you may walk by the use of foresight

As one who in God-like fashion bends over an anthill,
Seeing... (Read full poem)

I fancied, while you stood conversing there,
Superb, in every attitude a queen,
Her ermine thus Boadicea bare,
So moved amid the multitude Faustine.

Be charged with sin if ever before yours

Love of my life, you
Are lost and I am
Young again.
A few years pass.

The apple tree is
Studded with blossoms.

That is the point
Of the writing.
But you are... (Read full poem)

Nor all the tremulous things I said.
You still will see me, small and... (Read full poem)

I ASKED a gypsy pal
To imitate an old image
And speak old wisdom.

The top piece of a Nile obelisk
and said:
Snatch off the gag from thy mouth, child,
And be free to keep silence.
Tell no man anything for... (Read full poem)

Up from the bronze, I saw
Water without a flaw
Rush to its rest in air,
Reach to its rest, and fall.

Shaping upright the bare
Clear gouts of water in air.
O, as with arm and hammer,
Still it is... (Read full poem)

I've tried the new moon tilted in the air
Above a hazy tree-and-farmhouse cluster

Alone, or in one ornament combining
With one first-water start almost... (Read full poem)
19. On Looking Into The Eyes Of A Demon Lover - written by Sylvia Plath

Here are two pupils
whose moons of black
transform to cripples
all who look:

burning darts
turn back to injure
the thrusting... (Read full poem)
20. With The Face - written by Laura Riding Jackson

With the face goes a mirror
As with the mind a world.

Identity not yet familiar
Looks back upon itself from later,
And seems itself.
To-day seems... (Read full poem)

Brooklyn, 1929. Of course Crane's

Coming at dusk, when the dim stars emerge,
To a slow river at whose silent verge

My mind was a mirror:
It saw what it saw, it knew what it knew.

In a rapidly flying car,
Which catches and loses bits of the landscape.
Then in time
Great scratches were made on the mirror,

flowers in the neighbor's yard.
How many times, really, did... (Read full poem)
