Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird -- Wallace Stevens
This poem is often referred to as a perfect example of Cubism in poetry by distinctively showing different perspectives. Cubism is all about perspective, which this poem clearly illustrates, even in its title. Each section of the poem has a different meaning attatched, some of which are clear and some of which are abstract. There is also a lot of imagism in this poem.
