Great Regulars: The argument of the poem raises the question

most of us suspect must be right and that is, Can KK be finished by anyone given the unfinished genesis of most poems?

My answer to that is to say that an act of completion is really a reader's interpretive act, especially someone who reads as a writer, where the act of reading remakes the poem in the reader's image.
