E.E. Cummings' "Buffalo Bill's" is a poem where I admired the structure more than the content itself. It isn't a "must-read" poem and you're not really missing out on much. Note how Buffalo Bill and Mister Death are on their own lines, separate from each other. It reminds me of a western duel. If you read the poem, you'll find that the winner of the Duel is Mister Death. You could be a hero, cheat death, but you'll never beat death.
