※ 引述《skyhawk (冰封心靈)》之銘言： : r-p-o-p-h-e-s-s-a-g-r 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a i've spent some time on cummings again this winter holiday. it took me aeons to realise this: so I thought I'd share with you. for those of you who have forgotten -- this is one of e. e. cummings' work. the poem, r-p-o-p-h-e-s-s-a-g-r, actually depicts a grasshopper hopping around. the first line of the poem (and arguably, the title), is cummings' attempt to show how a grasshopper would hop around -- from 9 to a to 8 to 6 to 7 4 to 2 to 3 to 1 to 5 to 0. the grasshopper actually hops around on the page .. amongst the words .. as the poem progresses. :) quite amazing really. the book also mentioned a created persona, "i" (in lowercase), who frquently appears in many of his poems. this persona was said to represent "someone who stands away from the crowd, unappreciated, without power, yet able to open his heart with song or mock the follies of society and denounce the pretensions of authority." exampli gratia -- who are you,little i (five or six years old) peering from some high window;at the gold of november sunset (and feeling:that if day has to become night this is a beautiful way) -- _______________________________________________ [email protected] :: http://darkshadows.org/~skyhawk --
