I'm not sure why the poem makes the poet important, but from the perspective of the message of the poem The Conqueror Worm and Golf Links seem to have special meaning. The Worm speaks of the ups and downs of life that humans endure only to end in misery and death. I prefer to think there is more to death than misery, or just death, and I hope that my life's stage leaves something for someone else to use. (Like I said earlier, the older I get, the more I think of eternal things.)
The Golf Links just reminds me that I really would rather be sunning in the Dominican Republic than working...
