(i was shooting for e. e. cummings, but will not scoff at ferlinghetti, another hero.). i love e. e. cummings so much that i practically feel territorially about him. he is my favorite. i have audio tapes of cummings reading his poetry and while it was cool to hear his voice, i'd rather hear them in my own head instead.

april in national poetry month. if you can't wait until thursday you can peruse my little web collection. there's plenty of cummings.
