I've had a long and complicated relationship with Wallace Stevens.
I've hated him, been intrigued by him, stolen from been inspired by him, laughed about him, cried about him, loved him (I especially loved him when I wrote about him.)
Today, I'm simply going to send you to him, to "The Snow Man," and ask you what you think of it, what you think of him.
The Snow Man
by Wallace Stevens
One must have a mind of winter
(read and listen to the whole poem here, at The Poetry Foundation.)

That last line is a zinger!
Indeed!
The first line is kind of wow, too.
I agree, Tabatha. And you can't help but notice that it's not called "The Snowman" but "The Snow Man."
