"in Just-"--e.e. Cummings Many critics maintain that "in Just-" is a poem about loss of innocence. One example of evidence in support of this interpretation is that the goat-footed balloon man draws the children away from their games and towards the capitalized balloonMan at the end of the poem. Another interpretation is that "in Just-" is a simple poem meant to be enjoyed for its childlike tone and playful use of language. What do you think? Be sure to support your response with evidence from the text.
