Born Edward Estlin Cummings, Cambridge MA, 1894. Father was a Harvard professor, later Unitarian minister.
"His penchant for lower-case was extended to his initials by one of his publishers, and the practice caught on, though he himself usually kept the capitals." (Crystal)
anyone lived in a pretty how town
(with up so floating many bells down)
spring summer autumn winter
he sang his didn't he danced his did
Women and men (both little and small)
cared for anyone not at all
they sowed their isn't they reaped their same
sun moon stars rain (1940)
"The seeds of Cummings' unconventional style appear well established even in his earliest work. At age six, he wrote to his father:
     FATHER DEAR. BE, YOUR FATHER-GOOD AND GOOD,
     HE IS GOOD NOW, IT IS NOT GOOD TO SEE IT RAIN,
     FATHER DEAR IS, IT, DEAR, NO FATHER DEAR,
     LOVE, YOU DEAR,
     ESTLIN.
