A Little Poetry...

When I was at varsity, I went through a serious e.e. cummings phase.  I borrowed his complete works from the library repeatedly and religiously transcribed my favourites.  The other day I came across this poem which I love so I thought I'd share it here:

let it go - the
smashed word broken
open vow or 
the oath cracked length 
wise - let it go it 
was sworn to
go

let it go - the 
truthful liars and 
the false fair friends
and the boths
and neithers - you must let them go they 
were born 
to go

let all go - the
big small middling 
tall bigger really
the biggest and all
things - let all go
dear

so comes love 

- e.e. cummings
