1. Wallace Stevens had little interest in politics, however he wanted to write his poetry to "illuminate the world's surfaces as well as its depths."

2. Alliteration: dresser of deal, cups concupiscent curds

3. Only rhymes in last two lines of each stanza: "seem" and "cream" & "beam" and "cream".

3. Literal Summary: They are calling the man who rolls cigars because he is strong, and he is the one who can turn the ice cream. The first stanza represents excitement. In the second stanza, it describes a funeral and how the sheet is not even long enough to cover the deceased woman's feet.
