Talk:E. E. Cummings

Re Ezra Pound / revisions=

Re Ezra Pound is the most powerful formulation of ee cummings's thoughts or philosophy about life, art, and humanity in general. it would be appropriate as the first quote listed. or possibly as the only quote listed. it encompasses several derivations found elsewhere on the page (in weaker forms), which sit there in a scattered kind of redundancy, with long painful stretches of boldface.

but, i've checked back, and some typical idiot has deleted the entire thing. the one piece was the only thing worth a damn worth knowing worthy of a stranger coming to this page in the first place. and the scumball deleted it without so much as a peep on the discussion page.

to the idiot who deleted it-- didn't just move it, but deleted it, without any stated contention, without an explanation, with nothing but a self-granted ticket of authoritative stewardship: congratulations on your disgraces.

and no i'm not entering into a battle of reversion with you.

on another note entirely, and yet also on the topic of complete idiocy: the "[un]attributed" section probably needs to get the axe. not only does the bulk of the stuff there appear inauthentic, but the quotes are terrible. i can't even bear to read them again-- i read the section a few weeks ago. i have no idea how anyone could possibly find in those remarks a likeness with ee cummings's style, or his sentiments.

so i hereby abandon the wiki to the dogs. 128.119.232.102 06:01, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

correct titles

I suggest that the correct titles of Cummings's poems be given in the article about him.

These lines come from poem # 65 of XAIPE (1950), and a comment about their use was placed in that section. ~ Rumour 12:45, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
