The Disputants

________________________________________________
Title:     The Disputants
Author: William Carlos Williams [More Titles by Williams]

Upon the table in their bowl
in violent disarray
of yellow sprays, green spikes
of leaves, red pointed petals
and curled heads of blue
and white among the litter
of the forks and crumbs and plates
the flowers remain composed.
Cooly their colloquy continues
above the coffee and loud talk
grown frail as vaudeville.

[The end]
William Carlos Williams's poem: Disputants
