Great art has the ability to evoke a feeling of endlessness and depth. In the realm of literature, especially poetry, this richness is often conveyed through ambiguity. Each interpretation may reveal deeper meanings hidden beneath the surface, making the experience of rereading a work potentially rewarding as it uncovers new nuances and meanings.

In his book "Kissing the Mask," William T. Vollmann explores how this concept applies specifically to Japanese Noh theater. He emphasizes that the layered nature of poetry allows for complex interpretations, providing a space for subtlety and personal reflection. The intricacies of art invite audiences to engage continually, discovering hidden messages and layers each time they engage with the work.
