Who wrote the poem Keeping Still?

• A. Neruda - Keeping Still (1958)
• B. Gauguin - Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? (1897-98)
• C. Magritte - The Treachery of Images (1929)
• D. Beckett - Waiting for Godot, Scene 2 (1953)

Answer: (A)

Identifying who wrote a specific poem hinges on matching the work to its author. Keeping Still is a poem attributed to Pablo Neruda, the renowned Chilean poet known for his clear, image-driven verse. The other names are associated with works in other media: Gauguin and Magritte are painters, famous for visual art, while Beckett is a playwright, best known for Waiting for Godot. Since the question asks for the author of a poem, Neruda is the correct fit.
