Dead Every Enormous Piece - meaning Summary
Nonsense Versus Individual Pity
Cummings contrasts abstract, grand systems and long historical scales with the moral reality of one living person. The poem dismisses sweeping "nonsense"—states, centuries, or theoretical totals—as trivial when set against the immediate, painful existence of an individual who elicits pity. It argues for attention to present human suffering rather than consolation by vast, impersonal measures of time or supposed principles.
