Talk:Stevie Smith

"Not Waving but Drowning" characterization removed - needs source
""Not Waving but Drowning", which explores the fundamental isolation of the poet from her audience via the medium of a misapprehension relating to a swimmer dying at sea."

This seems to be one person's interpretation of the poem. I've read other, more believable interpretations, so I'm removing this until someone can provide a source where Smith specifically says this is her intended meaning for the poem. Teddywithfangs 03:31, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

I added this. I think that the poem is famous enough to deserve a mention.SmokeyTheCat 15:18, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Instead of extending the lede, I think it's the article that needs shortening. It seems to me full of non-notable ramblings. Valetude (talk) 18:06, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
