How to Read a Poem?

Please take some time to read the article on How to Read a Poem  from the poet.org website. Read the article carefully paying attention to both the discussion of the misconceptions people have about reading poetry and to suggestions of better ways to read poetry. 

Next, post about 300 words considering the following questions:

  • Based on what you have just read in the article, what misconceptions about reading poetry have you been “guilty” of in the past? We all have them, so there is no need to be shy. How do you suppose you developed those ways of reading?
  • What new ways of reading poetry explained in the article seem attractive to you and why?
  • What do you make of the suggestion to “embrace ambiguity” included in the article? Is it worth applying that suggestion to your own future readings of poetry, and, if so, why or why not?
