“what if a much of a wind” by E.E. Cummings




“what if a much of a which of a wind
gives the truth to summer's lie;
bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun
and yanks immortal stars awry?”


“what if a much of a wind” reveals the determination of the human spirit and its ability to avoid destruction and to live through devastation. With all the misfortunes life will offer, the will to sustain it all becomes the absolute survival. Cummings uses the element of individualism to portray in his art, that the virtues and wants of a person, can easily shape the meaning of poetry.
