i wore your remember

today all day, everywhen

i smiled at your not there

because i could and know

that nobody seen what i saw

in your remember


i put elton john in a box

on my dresser and said

play these same songs

over and

over and

over

and he did

because i wore your remember



e.e. cummings (1894-1962) is one of my favourite poets, and this poem, in particular, is an homage to his avant-garde style of writing. With that said, there are times his creations fly a bit above my comprehension, but this does not dissuade me from my appreciation. I think he was brilliant, and that I am not so much so, and that explains things. If you are a fan of modern poetry, I would hope that you would be well acquainted with e.e. cummings. I have a wonderful hardcover of his collected works (a gift from a dear friend) and I intend on completing it someday in the near future.
