Answer 1

D: Poetry that focused less on structure and more on the musical qualities of language.

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, the poetry in Modernism gives importance to structure, and rejects the ideas of realism and traditional forms in arts, and promotes new forms, atonality, stream-consciousness novels, treats social and literary traditions with irony. Modernism considers obsolute the culture of the past. It believes in an unending cycle of destruction, but then, reappearing in a new form.
