The Poem, William Carlos Williams

poetry365:

It’s all in
the sound. A song.
Seldom a song. It should

be a song—made of
particulars, wasps,
a gentian—something
immediate, open

scissors, a lady’s
eyes—waking
centrifugal, centripetal

I see your WCW and raise you a WCW.

“The Red Wheelbarrow”

so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain
water

beside the white
chickens.
