I think it means the poem did its job.

Ohhh, thank you Lady. Definitely going into my profile

I found the poem insightful and disturbing due to how it portrays the demands we make out of life and the world.

We so often cannot be happy with how things are. So we dig for a "deeper meaning", or "improve" the situation. Thereby missing the point entirely, possibly even destroying it in the process.
