Read the excerpt from "Poetry." I, too, dislike it: there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle. Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. Hands that can grasp, eyes that can dilate, hair that can rise if it must, these things are important not because a high-sounding interpretation can be put upon them but because they are useful. What theme does this excerpt best express?
APoetry is dull except when written in free verse.
BPoetry is interesting when it is authentic.
CPoetry is interesting only to the author of the poem.
DPoetry is often a mirror of human behavior.
