What element of modernist poetry is evident in this excerpt from the poem, "Poetry" by Marianne Moore?

Hands that can grasp, eyes
that can dilate, hair that can rise
if it must, these things are important not because a

high sounding interpretation can be put upon them but because
they are
useful. . .

There is a strict meter and rhyme.

There is an abcb rhyme scheme.

The sentences fall across multiple stanzas.

The theme of loneliness is obvious.

The third one;

abcb is more of a rhyming poem, which is not the case here
It's not obvious that loneliness is the topic, at all.
It can't be the first one because there is no rhyme and no strict structure to the poem

I hope this helps :)
