Thank you for posting this... It is one of the truly chilling, and moving pieces of audible art. Can anyone say GOOSE PIMPLES! (Honk)

Actually this passage is from one of two plays by Cummings, titled HIM. His other published play is called, Santa Claus.

@Kailoa36 Yeah, I realized that after I had posted it. Hey, but the important thing is that this is available online, right?

@kpg51876 Absolutely right and thanks for making available on YouTube. Cummings is my favorite poet and painter.

@kpg51876 Right. And thanks for posting it. I have long loved this particular passage.
