From: I have to say the my take on this poem is completely different. The real point of the poem is that so much depends on perspective. It all has to do with where the line breaks are placed. For instance, at the end of the first line of the second stanza the reader is tricked more or less, one pictures a wheel but it is in fact a wheelbarrow. It is too much to explain in this limited space but think about it. mfoisy@ bluoma@ Sidkyoa@ darctom@ ... dbprojectsolutions@

Variations on a Theme by William Carlos Williams 1 I chopped down the house that you had been saving to live in next summer. I am sorry, but it was morning, and I had nothing to do and its wooden beams were so inviting. 2 We laughed at the hollyhocks together and then I sprayed them with lye. Forgive me. I simply do not know what I am doing. 3 I gave away the money that you had been saving to live on for the next ten years. The man who asked for it was shabby and the firm March wind on the porch was so juicy and cold. 4 Last evening we went dancing and I broke your leg. Forgive me. I was clumsy and I wanted you here in the wards, where I am the doctor! Kenneth Koch A brilliant takeoff on William Carlos Williams' 'This is Just to Say'[1] - I still can't read it without laughing. Koch has the tone down perfectly - it is tempting to say that he dislikes Imagism, and is trying to skewer it for its [perceived] pretentiousness, but I feel he is laughing more with than at the genre (see his comments about seriousness in the notes). Perhaps the proper comparison is with Porter's 'Japanese Jokes'[2] - at first glance a rather cutting parody, but nonetheless genuinely sympathetic to the form. And finally I feel more than usually compelled to point out that all the above is strictly my opinion - feel free to ignore it and simply enjoy the poem for its very considerable merits. - m.

84. A Letter By William Carlos Williams About Eli Siegel's Poetry
    A LETTER BY william carlos williams. November 3, 1951 My dear Martha Baird Sincerelyyours, william carlos williams. 9 Ridge Road Rutherford, NJ.  
    http://www.elisiegel.net/poetry/WilliamsLetter1951.htm
    
    Extractions: November 3, 1951 My dear Martha Baird: I cannot adequately thank you for first writing me and then sending me the copies of Eli Siegel's poems. I am thrilled: your communications could not have come at a better time. I can't tell you how important Siegel's work is in the light of my present understanding of the modern poem. He belongs in the very first rank of our living artists. That he has not been placed there by our critics (what good are they?) is the inevitable result of their colonialism, their failure to understand the significance, the compulsions, broadened base upon which prosody rests in the modern world and our opportunity and obligations when we concern ourselves with it. We are not up to Siegel, even yet. The basic criteria have not been laid bare. It's a long hard road to travel with only starvation fare for us on the way. Almost everyone wants to run back to the old practices. You can't blame him. He wants assurance, security, the approval that comes to him from established practices. He wants be united with his fellows. He wants the "beautiful," that is to say ... the past. It is a very simple and very powerful urge. It puts the hardest burdens on the pioneer who while recognizing the virtues and glories of the past sees its restricting and malevolent fixations. Siegel knows this in his own person. He must be tough and supremely gifted. The thing that particularly interests me, after a lifetime of pondering the matter, is the technical implication. To me it's black and white: either a man has quit or gone forward. And if he's gone forward he's headed straight into disrepute. People aren't up to it. And of those who are for you almost no one knows why. It's all right to speak of aesthetic realism and you've done good work to get behind a man such as Siegel. But it goes deeper than that — or until I understand you better I have to assume it. But Siegel isn't for me an aesthete or not primarily an aesthete; he's an intensely practical professional writer who has outstripped the world of his time in several very important respects. Technical respects.

    http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/W/williamswillia
    
    Extractions: Like Chekhov, William Carlos Williams was a country doctor before he became a writer. He studied at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School and began practicing as a pediatrician in Rutherford, New Jersey (near the present-day Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford) before publishing his first literary work, 'Poems,' in 1909. He wrote stories, plays and autobiographies as well as poems. His most memorable achievement is probably his five books of poetry about the humble and downtrodden Northern New Jersey city of Paterson, which few people would have seen as a fit subject for an epic poem. "No ideas but in things," he writes in the first page, and to hammer the point home he studs this unpretentious but dramatic work with ancient newspaper articles, anecdotes and letters from friends and admirers. One of the letter-writers was A.G., an enthusiastic young poet admirer from Paterson. This was the then-unknown Allen Ginsberg.

    Extractions: Wednesday, 20 Jun 2001. From George Washington in In the American Grain, a collection of essays by William Carlos Williams, © 1933, (pp 142-144). By William Carlos Williams Here was a man of tremendous vitality buried in a massive frame and under a rather stolid and untractable exterior which the ladies somewhat feared, I fancy. He must have looked well to them, from a distance, or say on horseback - but later it proved a little too powerful for comfort. And he wanted them too; violently. One can imagine him curiously alive to the need of dainty waistcoats, lace and kid gloves, in which to cover that dangerous rudeness which he must have felt about himself. His interest in dress at a certain period of his career is notorious. Some girl at Princeton, was it? had some joke with him about a slipper at a dance. He was full of it. And there was the obscene anecdote he told that night in the boat crossing the Delaware. America has a special destiny for such men, I suppose, great wench lovers - there is the letter from Jefferson attesting it in the case of Washington, if that were needed - terrible leaders they might make if one could release them. It seems a loss not compensated for by the tawdry stuff bred after them - in place of a splendor, too rare. They are a kind of American swan song, each one. The whole crawling mass gnaws on them - hates them. He was hated, don't imagine he was not. The minute he had secured their dung heap for them - he had to take their dirt in the face.

    Extractions: While at the University of Pennsylvania, he fell in with the brilliant Ezra Pound. Pound profoundly influenced the poetry Williams continued to write. He joined the Imagist movement, writing unsentimental poetry in evocative language and experimental forms. Pound arranged for the publication of Williams's second volume of poetry, The Tempers in London in 1913. Back in Rutherford, Williams continued to produce poetry, essays, plays, and fiction. He slowly built a reputation second only to Pound as an Imagist. This position would be challenged by the emergence of T. S. Eliot in the 1920s. By that time Williams was drifting away from the Imagists, considering them, especially Eliot, too bound to European culture, too elitist, and too obscure. He continued to experiment adventurously with poetic form and typography. This experimentation was evident in his

    Extractions: Williams, William Carlos Poems (1909) and The Tempers (1913) to free-verse expressionism in Al Que Quiere! Kora in Hell (1920), and Sour Grapes (1921). Williams observed American life closely, expressed anger at injustice, and recorded his impressions in a lucid, vital style. He developed a verse that is close to the idiom of speech, revealing a fidelity to ordinary things seen and heard. Later volumes of his poetry include Collected Poems Collected Later Poems Collected Earlier Poems Journey to Love Pictures from Brueghel, and Other Poems (1963; Pulitzer Prize), and a five-volume, impressionistic, philosophical poem, Paterson (1946-58), in which he uses the experience of life in an American city to voice his feelings on the duty of the poet. His essays include those in In the American Grain Selected Essays (1954), and Embodiment of Knowledge (1974). Among his other works are a collection of short stories, Make Light of It (1950); plays, including

    Extractions: Latest News William Carlos Williams was born in Rutherford, New Jersey, in 1883. He began writing poetry while a student at Horace Mann High School, at which time he made the decision to become both a writer and a doctor. He received his M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania, where he met and befriended Ezra Pound . Pound became a great influence in Williams' writing, and in 1913 arranged for the London publication of Williams's second collection, The Tempers . Returning to Rutherford, where he sustained his medical practice throughout his life, Williams began publishing in small magazines and embarked on a prolific career as a poet, novelist, essayist, and playwright. Following Pound, he was one of the principal poets of the Imagist movement, though as time went on, he began to increasingly disagree with the values put forth in the work of Pound and especially Eliot , who he felt were too attached to European culture and traditions. Continuing to experiment with new techniques of meter and lineation, Williams sought to invent an entirely fresh—and singularly American—poetic, whose subject matter was centered on the everyday circumstances of life and the lives of common people. His influence as a poet spread slowly during the twenties and thirties, overshadowed, he felt, by the immense popularity of Eliot's "The Waste Land"; however, his work received increasing attention in the 1950s and 1960s as younger poets, including

    Extractions: Like his colleagues H.D., Moore, and Pound, Williams doubtless saw Lawrence Binyon's exhibition of Chinese art at the British Museum, 1910-12, and recognized the importance of his close friend Pound's Cathay in 1915 when he judged "the Chinese things" to be "perhaps a few of the greatest poems ever written."

    Extractions: It is a willow when summer is over, a willow by the river from which no leaf has fallen nor bitten by the sun turned orange or crimson. The leaves cling and grow paler, swing and grow paler over the swirling waters of the river as if loth to let go, they are so cool, so drunk with the swirl of the wind and of the river oblivious to winter, the last to let go and fall into the water and on the ground. The sky has given over its bitterness. Out of the dark change all day long rain falls and falls as if it would never end. Still the snow keeps its hold on the ground. But water, water is seething from a thousand runnels. It collects swiftly, dappled with black cuts a way for itself through green ice in the gutters. Drop after drop it falls from the withered grass stems of the overhanging embankment.

100. William Carlos Williams / Poems
     Poems. william carlos williams. william carlos williams (18831963) isone of the most widely read American poets of the twentieth century.  
     http://www.press.uillinois.edu/s02/williams.html
     
     Extractions: Before William Carlos Williams was recognized as one of the most important innovators in American poetry, he commissioned a printer to publish 100 copies of Poems (1909), a small collection largely imitating the styles of the Romantics and the Victorians. This volume collects the self-published edition of Poems, William's foray into the world of letters, with previously unpublished notes he made after spending nearly a year in Europe rethinking poetry and how to write it. As Poems shows William's first tentative steps into poetry, the notes show him as he prepares to make a giant transformation in his art. Shortly after Poems appeared, Williams went through a series of experiences that changed his lifea trip to Europe, a marriage to the sister of the woman he genuinely loved, and the establishment of his medical practice. In Europe he was introduced to an unlikely trio: Heinrich Heine, Martin Luther, and Richard Wagner, resulting in an exposure that influenced his developing style. Williams looked back on Poems as apprentice work, calling it, "bad Keats, nothing elseoh well, bad Whitman too. But I sure loved [the poems]. . . . There is not one thing of the slightest value in the whole thin bookletexcept the intent," and he never republished the collection.
