wait so this is the Great American Poet?
>And so,
>They went down to the skiff
>Picasso's lioness kissed the banquet lips
>Into the sward of kelp-stream (kennings now, JJ)
>And loosed a lob of cum into the chyme
>So-shun
>The great unwobbling teacher came
>And threw the rest of the spermatozoa
>Into the dross
>MARINETTI ZIMZOMBOB
>As Climacus.... Shat into the mix
>AND HELL OPENED with the pustules of (St Peter Basilica judged by Eriugena's stained glass)
>Gonzaga his heirs
>And the shepherd-god blew his fife,
>Pan can do the can-can;
>As the boat weaves through the waves
>And the steam tug goes to The Heart of Darkness THE HORROR! THE HORROR!

Litanons will cope that this isn't just brain dead poetry with meaningless references thrown in to appear intellectual.

No. Eliot, Whitman, and Dickinson are much better.

But can you metrically analyse his language or are you just complaining about something you know nothing about?

>But can you metrically analyse his language
No amount of metrical analysis can make a bad poem good. Just like no autistic application of music theory will make math rock into good music.

agreed.. if you come out of this period convinced ts Eliot is superior bruh lay off the ether

pound was one of the most learned, clear-eyed, project-bound poets of the last 200 years in America - alas the project failed miserably, but the sense in it is undeniable... his comprehension of the chinese you'll have to forgive him for, as fenollosa will have to be forgiven for learning chinese via Nippon; the greek, roman, Occitan, rosicrucian, and Anglo-Saxon considerations do more than make up for it, show me a poet of greater esteem and I'll show you a poet of lesser test, smaller concerns and province.

btw can I borrow a coin anon?? spare two pence?

Na Audiart, how I have praised thy girdle's scope.

yea math rock isn't that bad.

>>24977429
It's really nothing like that. What you're saying is 'no matter how beautiful the melodies and harmonic progressions are, I don't understand the form therefore it's garbage'. That's the musical equivalent of what you're saying, only you're denying that there's anything musical about Pound at all because you lack the ear to hear it.
