The great intrest in this poem is due to the fact that it is one of the greatest of the modernist period.
We recently looked at this in class (a group of mostly 15 year olds) and we came to the conclusion that the poem is talking about the images we get from literature, I'm not quite sure how we got there but we also talked about how the two lines relate etc... sorry i cant elaborate more but i didn't bring my english folder home :S

my college is having us doe a project on a poet. I picked ezra manly do to this poem. it makes you look at life outside of its daily surroundings. I think it was made for many interpretations, and that there are. So interpret this how you want it makes your mind take a new stance in imagination.
