on Approach Of Winter by William Carlos Williams, on February 18, 2005This is splendid. I just felt like the leaf with the winter approach. And ironically,the surname of the girl I am going to date tomorrow is winter. Kinda feel like Prufrock after this.
The phrase 'and fall' creates such an effect and it seems to me that at the end, the leaves are either stretched beyond their limit(as a pessimistic interpretation would suggest) or have been taken to a new place which they were scared of before.

on A Ballad of Gentleness by Geoffrey Chaucer, on February 15, 2005Very thought provoking. Reading chaucer is a delight. This is the first by Chaucer I am reading and it removes some of my fears in being able to read his stuff. I'll read more now.

on Dream Deferred by Langston Hughes, on January 28, 2005I get an inferiority complex when I hear of other poets writing such wonderful poetry at such a young age.Boo hoo!
Glad to have read this.

Pound is criticizing a materialistic world that has lost its sense of wonder(child -so high-you are) and its touch with nature and the world of imagination(imagination because the tree ha been inverted in you and it grows from the head).The branches growng out like arms remind me of embracing-a world aloof from materialistic values.Also there is something alive and organic about the world Pound supports and this vibrancy is folly to the world, because it is dead.
gave it my best shot. I don't have a lot of biographical info about Pound .hope this helps.
