This week's poem is Let it Go by e. e. cummings. Cummings was born in Massachusetts in 1894 and was a pioneer of modern poetry in his experimentation with form, punctuation, spelling and sound in poetry. Here is his poem--Let it Go.
let it go - the
smashed word broken
open vow or
the oath cracked length
wise - let it go it
was sworn to
go
let them go - the
truthful liars and
the false fair friends
and the boths and
neithers - you must let them go they
were born
to go
let all go - the
big small middling
tall bigger really
the biggest and all
things - let all go
dear
so comes love
