About E. E. Cummings

Edward Estlin Cummings (October 14 1894 – September 3 1962) was an American poet. Because of the typography used in many of his works it has become a widespread tradition for his name to be presented in lower case as e. e. cummings, though he himself continued to use uppercase letters in signing his own name.

then decently hanged himself,one afternoon.

The last thing he saw was you
naked amid unnaked things...

for life's not a paragraph

and death i think is no parenthesis
