ANCIENT WISDOM, RATHER COSMIC by EZRA POUND

Poem Explanation Poet Analysis

First Line: SO-SHU DREAMED
Last Line: HENCE HIS CONTENTMENT.
So-shu dreamed,
And having dreamed that he was a bird, a bee, and a butterfly,
He was uncertain why he should try to feel like anything else,

Hence his contentment.
