EE ​​​​Cummings' poetry lives in a fun utopia of hope and love. This utopia is described in detail in one of EE Cumming's poems, "Who Knows If". It describes a place of pleasure and work, and could even be seen as a kind of paradise that Cumming urges humanity to reach through love and kindness. He says, “Everyone is in love and the flowers pick themselves.” Hope resonates throughout Cumming's collection of poems and seems to suggest that there is always hope for a better life and gives his readers clues on how to work towards a perfect society while playing with the structure of the poem and challenging its reader to interpret its complex ideas. On the theme of “hope,” Cummings warns about having a brain but not being able to use it. In "Here Comes Little Effie", Cummings talks about Judgment Day and Effie being "left behind". To end his poem, Cummings writes "here is the head of little Effie/whose brain is made of gingerbread." He says that Effie, which sounds oddly similar to the slang term "iffy", couldn't think for herself and therefore couldn't make any decisions or do anything with her life. Our brains don't go with us when we die, but our minds do and the only way to be spiritual and do the right thing is to use our heads. If humans don't use their brains to make a decision or do something great in the world, our minds don't achieve anything either. The result is that all that remains on the Day of Judgment are “six crumbs left by the coffin lid.” However, “hope,” to use a cliché, comes in all forms. Hope is also instilled in a different form in “Nobody Loses All the Time.” In this narrative poem, Cummings describes his "Uncle Sol" who completely failed at everything he did or tried; actually...... middle of paper ...... : "spring is like a hand perhaps in a window (carefully moving things new and old back and forth, while people watch carefully move here perhaps a fraction of a flower and place it an inch of air there) and without breaking anything” He begins by comparing spring to a “hand perhaps” and then creates pastoral imagery of spring. also likes to use extended personifications throughout a poem, such as in the poem mentioned above where he personifies a new car with a woman He also really likes alliteration, as many appear in each poem and add to the silliness. in his tone and syntax, one of the best-known poets of the 20th century, uses his own style to describe erotic and everyday love, mocking snobbery and conformity, and giving hope. better improve the lives of individuals and groups..
