What picture would symbolize e.e. cummings poem, “Let it Go”?
I’d picture a room stuffed with people standing around and behind a central, seated figure. The people would be expressing various things on their faces – pleading, apologies, exaggeration, profession of love, chiding, argument, aloofness, everything in the emotional relationship spectrum… and the central figure would be taking it all in, eyes slightly rolled, silent, with a small, appreciative smile beginnning on his face. The reason I say this is that the message seems to be that only when you let yourself let go of people’s foolishness and faults, their falseness and frailty, only when you get past all that can you begin to love them in spite of it all.
