Poetry today resembles poetry from the 14th century as the theme of fortune still resonates with modern audiences.

The other three options are incorrect. Option A demeans the purpose of poetry and ends it only to criticize the ills. Option B talks about the respect which not only is concentrated on any certain literary genre but the respect lies equally to each. The option D is incorrect because poetic devices are the tools which enhance the meaning and importance of a poem and is used in past as well as in present.
