Poetry fans, What do you like about Ezra Pound? What is the most interesting Ezra Pound poem to you?

Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

To me poet Erza Pound seems to be a nature lover. His strong liking for the nature is depicted in each and every poem of his. He compares every thing be it a girl or a man , their beauty or feelings to that of the things found in nature.
I liked the poem "The River Merchant's Wife.

It Is 4:30Am. All I can think of (without going to some online source or digging out my Oxford Companion to English Literature) is this: 'And the women come and go, talking of Michelangelo'...But that's not Ezra Pound, its T.S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufock". Oh no, no Best Answer for me!

Seriously, Budawiggi, I think this was a great question. Always nice to be reminded that I've squandered my expensive education by now wasting my time reading British mysteries and writing Mahalo Pages....
source(s):
My source? Wh knows where these lines of lon-forgotten poetry from 10th Grade English bubble up from???
