Explore "The Disputants" by William Carlos Williams on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
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.
