Explanation:

Modernism was an artistic movement created with the intention of breaking with the characteristics of the ancient literary schools. This movement was characterized by the break with the traditional, transforming the way it was previously written; Some of these changes are: Formal Freedom, which was expressed in the use of the free verse, the abandonment of fixed forms, such as the sonnet; colloquial speech, lack of punctuation and the presence of fallen sentences in multiple stanzas of a poem.

This last feature is the one we can observe in the above poem, where sentences fall into multiple stanzas creating an emphasis on the first word of each line.
