∙ 9y ago
William Carlos Williams suggested that poetry is like a machine because he believed that a poem should be well-crafted, precise, and efficient in its use of language. Just like a machine performs a specific function with precision, a poem should work to convey its message effectively without unnecessary words or ornamentation. Williams emphasized the importance of clarity and simplicity in poetry, akin to the functionality of a well-designed machine.

Confederate forces deployed in a defensive line along Rocky Face Ridge but Cavalry General Joseph Wheeler's refusal to scout for the enemy left Snake Creek Gap undefended. The Federal Army of the Tennessee's appearance from Snake Creek Gap made the Confederate positions at Rocky Face Ridge untenable and forced them to withdraw to Resaca where they almost routed the Army of the Tennessee before night fell and the Federals regrouped to push the Confederate back.

Sturgis. In one of the most impressive victories of the war Forrest defeated a force of about 8,500 men with only 3,200 and destroyed that task force sent against him.
