Naught stayeth, naught now bideth
But's smithereened apart!"

Narrowing the mustard scansions of the eyes,"

Along with Wallace Stevens, Hart Crane is easily one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. In fact, I include him among the Big Four; Dickinson, Whitman, Crane, Stevens. Though not widely read today, (which is no barometer of a poet's greatness) , Crane's influence will always be felt on readers as well as poets who enjoy rich, allusive, and beautiful poetry.
