I've always liked that poem, but didn't realize it was a sonnet at first.

oh don't worry
I wasn't checking to see if people recognize it. I just wanted to know what you thought of it.

=)

However, since you're wondering, this is "next to of course god america i" by ee cummings.

There is so much shit out there to read that I would never post something assuming someone has already read it. Rather, I post things to be read - to be discussed - to be reflected upon... etc. Besides, I am DEFINITELY not the world's most well-read individual. I'm sure you have read lifetimes more than me already at this point. I just read bits and pieces for as long as my attention holds. =) This is why poetry is so great for me!

hehe, oh don't worry I was kind of just joking. although it is good to know the title/poet. It's always cool to read one of your posts that quotes some awesome person from 80 years ago :)
