wcw is, in my humble yet enlightened opinion, the best american poet after Walt Whitman; definately the best 20th Century american...i included this in my blog so anyone of my finely constituted readers would grasp what i really love, what i hold close to my heart in art. wcw is better than haiku, for he says more in less words, so to speak!
williams reminds one of delicate chinese brush strokes of the ancients, depicting only a branch of a tree with plum blossoms, yet showing the essence of tree, how the part can indicate the whole, how one less flower in the universe will make the creator of this cosmos sad...read williams if you want to write poetry, read williams, read williams, read williams ("no ideas but in things")
