Why Ezra Pound, Why?

Because of Ezra Pound's declared insanity in 1945, he has forced me to declare insanity too. His poems often consist of inconstant ramblings about how America could be oh so perfect if poetry was taken more seriously. Pound had many economist theories. Funny, considering he was a very controversial POET, not an ECONOMIST. Yeah, makes total sense. Pound participated in both Imagism and Vorticism. Which, morally are completely different from one another. One is about how language should create a clear-cut example of art while the other is employed in abstract art. Just like his brain, Pound has no clue what to do. He wants to be everything, yet be absolutely nothing. This is killing me. How am I suppose to find common themes in his poetry when he is not consistent? It doesn't even say WHY he became crazy. So dead end there. Can I change my poet? I can't write a five page paper about Ezra Pound before I leave for Germany in 18 days. I would like to graduate, get a job, and be in my mid-50s when I become crazy, just like Ezra Pound, not when I'm 17 years old. *Note: this is just a rant, not an actual blog so please don't grade this because I can't afford anything under a B. Otherwise I'll loose my scholarship to college. I blame Ezra Pound for my current problems so just like Ezra Pound blamed America for his problems (maybe?). Who really knows for sure why he became crazy- crazy people don't have a sane basis for what they believe in. He was hardly a poet, definitely more of a critical analysis of other poets. HE COPIED SO MANY POEMS, THERE'S NO ORIGINALITY TO WRITE ABOUT. I should just write about Robert Browning instead since Pound paralleled so many of his literary techniques and imagery in Cantos. So yes, it's only been two hours of researching Ezra Pound and I hate him. The end.
