annie died the other day
never was there such a lay—
whom,among her dollies,dad
first(“don’t tell your mother”)had;
making annie slightly mad
but very wonderful in bed
—saints and satyrs,go your way
youths and maidens:let us pray”
– E.E. Cummings, “22” from 73 Poems (punctuation and spacing as in original)
