    I'm sorry to say that where the punctuation is no joke at all. When I first looked at a Cumming's piece, I could have thought the same. However, Cumming's style is like this. He's the only poet in history to be able to write like this- it's harder than you believe. He uses broken up words to show emotion. You can't look at a Cumming's poem half the time and approach it in an intellectual manner- it's mostly emotion, or to deal with the minds eye. If you try and decode this poem, you ruin it.
    To be honest, if you think about it, I think this is about a storm coming into land. Black against the white sky.
    Black being storm clouds against a sky covered in white clouds.
