I have read many of the most famous classic poems and poetry of some of the greatest poets. I like to give poets the benefit of the doubt and read the entire book even if I don't like it. I tried this with Moore's book but I just couldn't finish it. Most of the poems start out with meaning and flow but tend to end up as ramblings making no sense at all. Moore posses a fluent vocabulary but most of the time it appears she is just using words for their beauty but not making any sense in relation to the poem. I understand in poetry there is not right or wrong but I just didn't really get it. Marianne Moore, you are very smart and bright and small. You can tell that about you and about you being with your mother and visiting just about everywhere there are brightnesses and so you are stretching and honeing and hawing, you call forth with a smirk the little things, forte and da, and all of it is so very smart and bright in the smart light. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

None of that detracts from the fact that she is delightful, with that genuine, infectious childlike sensibility essential to the "wide-eyedness" of the artist.
