description: Michelangelo's poems are like the letters of other they range from formal words of thanks to passionate argument; they flatter patrons, address lovers - and God. As in his sculpture, Elizabeth Jennings remarks, so in the poems, the dominating feature is vehement energy, an energy which is mastered by a longing for order.
