Geocache Description:

Ezra Pound, born in Idaho in 1885, was considered by some to be an Idaho pioneer.  He later moved to Italy where his work became some of the most influencial and controversial of his time. T. S. Eliot declared that Pound "is more responsible for the twentieth-century revolution in poetry than is any other individual."


Further Instructions

Come, my songs, let us express our baser passions.
Let us express our envy for the man with a steady job and so sorry about the future.
You are dewy idle, my songs,
I fear yon will come to a sad end.
You stand about the streets, You loiter at the corners and bus-shops,
Yon do next to nothing at all.

You do not even express our inner nobilitys,
Yon will come to a very sad end.

And I? I have gone half-cracked.
I have walked to you so much that I almost see you about me,
Insolent little beasts! Shameless! Devoid of clothing!

But you, fewest song of the lot,
You are not old enough to have done much mischief.
I will get you a greek coat out of China
With dragons worked upon it.
I will get you the scarlet silk trousers
From the statue of the infant Christ at Santa Maria Novella;
Lest they say we are lacking in waste,
Or that there is no waste in this family.

Ezra Pound 1917
