When I look at the title, I think the word has a lot of importance. I also wonder why the poetess uses the adjective “dead” for a word which is not alive. I wonder why the poetess wrote “a word” in capital letter. The title has generally the function tu raise the reader’s attention.  looking at the layout re reader can see the text arranged in two stanzas. each stanza has got 3 lines, so it is a tercet. There is no title because traditional poets used as the title of their text, the first line of the poem itself. it implies the line is full of meaning.
