In one poem, this author wrote that "to say would be to sing," "a frown would be a smile," and november would be may" if "seventy were young and death uncommon." This poet wrote about "four lean hounds crouched low and smiling" who hunt a "horse of gold / into the silver dawn" in a poem beginning "all in green went my love riding." He described people who "masturbate with dynamite" and "shake the mountains when they dance" in "the boys I mean are not refined," and wrote about a soldier who responds to torture by repeating "there is some shit I will not eat" in a poem collected in ViVa, "I sing of Olaf glad and big." For 10 points, name this American poet of "anyone lived in a pretty how town," whose poetry is marked by irregular stanzas and unusual grammar.
