Susan Wheeler (1955- ) is a prolific American poet who published six books of poetry, most recently is Meme (2012). Her poetic style is characterized by its ambiguity. She is resistant to interpretation and says that if she puts into account the reader’s ability to understand her poetry, she will censor the emotion that guides her. In Song for the Spirit of Natalie Going, the phrases are very ambiguous, because they are not included in complete sentences; they are separated from the rest of the poem by commas and dashes. These phrases denote some meanings; the reader should interpret them to solve the poem. In order to interpret these denoting phrases, the researcher applies Bertrand Russell’s ‘Denoting Phrases’ theory to the poem. Russell believes that a phrase is denoting solely through its form and there are four classes to interpret a phrase in order to understand its sole preposition. These four classes will help interpret the poem’s denoting phrases; solve it. This study will prove that Russell’s theory is applicable to Wheeler’s Song for the Spirit of Natalie Going and is very helpful to solve it.
