My favorite poem.
since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you:
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world
my blood approves,
and kisses are a better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all the flowers, Don’t cry
- the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids’ flutter which says
we are for each: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life’s not a paragraph
And death i think is no parenthesis
- E. E. Cummings
