LIFE

Bill Remmus's Questions:

Are the symbols comprising this poem strong enough, or universal enough, to carry the meaning of the poem by themselves (given the direction of the title)?

Does a poem of nothing more than symbols have any intrinsic beauty?

How much can symbols be relied upon before literary degradation begins to set in?
