Paper Summary:

This paper analyzes Moore's poetic style, choice of wording, use of visual imagery and influences in her poem "Poetry" and explains that the poem is really about her feelings that the poetry popular during her time was insincere and dishonest.

From the Paper:

"Marianne Moore's well-known poem, Poetry, follows in her typical literary style. She is known for her trite, strong and exacting wording and Poetry is written along the same vein. She begins in an almost offhand manner with "I too, dislike it" (Moore) as if to put the reader at ease, telling them that she is not taking her life's work too seriously. Yet Moore is merely mocking her readers because she is quite serious about her criticism that is to follow. "
