Universe - In this poetry, the world that a story is told is 'sea'. The sea in this peom is what a woman willing to imitate and something to be same. Itself is 'the real nature' different from imagination or from human. Even though the song of female singer tried to be same, the sea-"real sea"- is something never become same.
Text - One female singer is singing the sea. Thinking she is singing the same as the sea, she creates the song what she is singing. However, the teller of this poetry says the sound of the sea and the song of singer never become same.
Therefore, the sea is mere a place which the female singer is singing, her song and the sound of the sea is not harmonized. Nevertheless, the teller says "if the female singer sings exactly same as the sound of sea, what would it mean? - if it is same, the song could not have meaning itslef" That might be the simple sound; 'only the outer voice of the sea or the outer voice of the sky.' As she sings the song which is try to imitate the sea, she create another world of the sea. And teller said, the sea inside her which she thinks same as real sea is something more than the real sea.
Artist - The susceptibility about some object of each poet is different and even same poet's susceptibility is differnt by when or where he is. So, even though people are looking ar same 'thing' , the color ans smell of the thing will be differenciated by people and by the place or the time.
Steven thought the poetry should satisfied men when religion cannot do it. To him, relation between reality and image is something to inquire. In his poetry, 'real reality' is reality combined with imagination. the reality without combining imagination is just reality. So the poetry itself is not an objective realtiy but its transformation.
Audience - While reading, whole sense was focused on 'the sea' and 'the female singer'. However, ironically the figure of female singer singing the song is more imazinable rather than the song itslef. The singer exists but cannot be seen. But without the sensible image of sight, I could see the figure of female singer. The most precisely acceptable presense was existance of female singer. Audience(people) is all creater, not only the singer. And audience can learn that the creation from trying to imitate the real is more valuable than the reality itself.
