I like this poem

Roger Ebert posted this poem by e e cummings on his blog. It was in response to an interesting comment about how we should stop obsessing over the debates regarding the art world and concentrate on living (turn off the computer and put a bookmark in your book so that you can go outside and kiss a pretty girl).

Anyway, here it is:


mr youse needn't be so spry
concernin questions arty

each has his tastes but as for i
i likes a certain party

gimme the he-man's solid bliss
for youse ideas i'll match youse

a pretty girl who naked is
is worth a million statues
