An Explication of Merwin's 'The Paper'

Abstract: A 1 page discussion of the themes and images in Merwin's poem. It concludes that although the poet seems to conclude that poetry isn't worth either reading or writing because it doesn't contain the original experience, the fact that the poet wrote this excellent poem at all belies this. No sources except poem.
