This week I take a look at the poem Somewhere I Have Never Traveled, Gladly Before by E.E. Cummings. I focus on how the poem encapsulates, not only the hallmarks of his style, but also how much he had grown throughout his career. This one has a little bit of everything: Paganism, Romanticism, life and death.
