I would say that the lines which show us how desperate the poet is are the following:
"... helpless in my throes, Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite--"
As you can see here, the poet says he is helpless, meaning that he cannot find inspiration to write what he wants to write. Therefore he is desperate for some inspiration, which is why he is biting his truant pen in order to show how anxious he is to get his inspiration back.
The correct answer is A. dialogue is used.
This is not a difference between literary and dramatic works. Dialogues are used both in literary texts and in plays, so they are not something that distinguishes the two genres. On the other hand, stage directions are written only in dramatic works, and only they are meant to be performed on stage, whereas novels and other literary works are not.
