Use the active voice and do not use these words or phrases:
can be viewed as, can be seen as, may refer to, refers to, is referencing, or any other use of "refers" since to use that word means you are not interpreting but somehow showing us what a poetic phrase REALLY stands for, as if the poet could not express the real thing somehow. Rather, investigate relationships within the poem. Everything is about relationships -- word to word, sentence to line, image to idea, me to you. What network of relationships has the poet constructed, and how do you and I fit into it?
