Nobody loses all
the time
e e cummings

, Background on the poet
E.E. Cummings, in full Edward Estlin Cummings
• Born October 14, 1894 and died September 3, 1962.
• American poet and painter who first attracted attention, in an age of lite
experimentation, for his unconventional punctuation and phrasing.
• As part of his linguistic experiments, Cummings invented complex words
used inverted syntax. He used different text alignments, irregular line
spacing, and nontraditional capitalization to emphasize particular words
phrases.
• His distinctive typography was often matched with his subject matter
because his moods alternated between satire and toughness and tende
and whimsicality.
• A frequent user of colloquial language and material from burlesque and
circus, his erotic poetry and love lyrics were often filled with images of t
natural world and infused with a childlike candor.
