Could you please send me the original cummings poem and the maybe related poem beginning: "Met a man once Bought a bird-dog Threw it up Two three times In the air Wouldn't fly So he shot it. Are these two poems somehow related? Years ago I ran into a poem written on a restroom wall in a bar which I believed was related somehow to e.e.cummings’”Buffalo Bill’s Defunct.”
Could you please send me the original cummings poem and the maybe related poem beginning:
“Met a man once
Bought a bird-dog
Threw it up
Two three times
In the air
Wouldn’t fly
So he shot it.

Are these two poems somehow related?
