i am so glad and very
merely my fourth will cure
the laziest self of weary
the hugest sea of shore
so far your nearness reaches
a lucky fifth of you
turns people into eachs
and cowards into grow
our can'ts were born to happen
our mosts have died in more
our twentieth will open
wide a wide open door
we are so both and oneful
night cannot be so sky
sky cannot be so sunful
i am through you so i

“we are so both and oneful” I liked that : ) I'll need more coffee to absorb the whole poem! but I love e.e. cummins. His meaning, and my deepest appreciation for it, arise in those spaces where my comprehension falters. “What did he just say?” Feeling responds, while my mind requests more caffeine.
