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 worldmy blood approves,
and kisses are a better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
– the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which sayswe are for each other; then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraphAnd death i think is no parenthesis
- E. E. Cummings
