Answer:

The poem creates a much more powerful response.

Step-by-step explanation:

It describes what happens to Icarus far more than in the painting. While the painting may give a sense of sadness at the fact that nobody is noticing the boy drowning. The poem creates a much stronger feeling, and that feeling is dread, about what is happening to Icarus, rather than what the people around are doing.
