William Carlos Williams in his poem: 'A Sort of a Song' gives us a real
'ARS POETICA'.A motto for all of us: 'and the writing be of words' and an ideal:
'Compose. (No ideas but in things) Invent! '

Seán O' Muiriosa (7/12/2006 5:45:00 PM)
I think what Carlos Williams does with form is exceptional and something truely brilliant.
