Poem - "when what hugs stopping earth than silent is... (16)" by E. E. Cummings

"when what hugs stopping earth than silent is... (16)" 
by E. E. Cummings


when what hugs stopping earth than silent is

more silent than more than much more is or

total sun oceaning than any this

tear jumping from each most least eye of star



and without was if minus and shall be

immeasurable happenless unnow

shuts more than open could that every tree

or than all life more death begins to grow



end's ending then these dolls of joy and grief

these recent memories of future dream

these perhaps who have lost their shadows if

which did not do the losing spectres mime



until out of merely not nothing comes

only one snowflake(and we speak our names.
