Reflection # 5 Word choice

The author of any poem can choose the words they like but they have to be very concentrated and exact because you can't explain them in a 100 word poem, thats why they can bring a lot of problems on the readers way of understanding. All the readers have to be alert of the meaning of those words, just to understand the poem. A great example is how E.E. Cummings was able to manage a comparison a virgin's first experience in sex with a first time riding a new car. Every part of the car compared to the girl's body parts. Thats the example of the word choice the author used.
