    The saying goes‚ a picture can paint a thousand words‚ but can the same feat be applied to a short poem containing just one sentence? This seems so cause during 1932‚ William Carlos Williams wrote a minimalist masterpiece‚ “Red Wheelbarrow”. Upon first impressions there’s not much information to take in.

    ​The importance of a poem does not always come in its meaning. William Carlos Williams illustrates this in his work‚ “The Great Figure.” Being an extremely short story about a man seeing a fire truck speed past him on a gloomy night‚ the actual story leaves readers searching for more.
