Why is it masculine?
Poema is masculine in Italian. While it does derive from Latin "poēma," which came from Greek "poíēma" (ποίημα), the explanation of the gender shift is inaccurate. Latin "poēma" was actually masculine (not neuter), and Italian inherited this masculine gender directly from Latin. The rule incorrectly states that Greek neuter nouns ending in -ma became masculine in Italian; in fact, Latin nouns ending in -ma of Greek origin were typically masculine, and this gender was preserved in Italian.
