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 flowers. Don't cry
-the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says
we are for each other: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph
And death i think is no parenthesis
cummings always out of syntactical but order who cares poetry when words beautiful flowing riverfree
to outloud speak delight always sometimes hard to tell punctuation; where you put it or not
breathe

All the experts keep misinterpreting his final lines. A walk in any graveyard or a simple glance in the daily obituaries will answer the question and explain his poem or lyric as the experts say. Cummings' final lines in his poem point out that life is so much more than a brief paragraph as in a obituary and we have certainly lived a life far more expansive than being contained within a parenthesis ( 2019-?) Will your story end up as a paragraph? And how many years will be written down? Is that all that you will ever be or does your memory carry on through time?
