Are the arts of painting and poetry comparable? It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words, but can a painting truly be represented in written form? The Modernist poets William Carlos Williams and W.H. Auden use every grammatical tool and trick of form available to them to do just that. Williams wrote the poem “Landscape with the Fall of Icarus” which makes a clear allusion in the first line to a painting with the same name by Brueghel the Elder. Similarly, W.H.

The poem I chose was “The Red Wheelbarrow”, by William Williams. This I a very short poem, and still delivers great imagery and description.

In line one the word depends appears and from then I saw how it is speaking in regards of something important. Also when I looked back I noticed it was an essential because Williams said so much”, both words make the reader see how it was just not important

The point of view in William Williams “The Use of Force” lets him cover up the brutality and sickness in what seems to be an ordinary patient analysis. While this story contains brutality and a demented atmosphere it also contains an unexpected twist in the plot. The legitimacy of these in “The Use of Force” relies heavily on the author’s point of view and how an underlying desire for evil is covered up within a doctor’s visit.
