1. try to meet the poem’s terms and not yours [ like try to relate and put yourself in its perspective ]
2. separate the poet from the speaker of the poem
[ a poet always wears a mask ]
3. a poem can feel like a locked safe so you try to unlock the true definition and try to find the meaning with some words
