Begin writing your analysis . It should contain the title, the author, and an explanation of the writer’s position as well as the significance of the title. Include a brief overall statement of the meaning of the poem. . In the body of the analysis, discuss how the poem was written, which poetic devices were used, the tone, the poet’s attitude, and the shift of the poem from the beginning to the poet’s ultimate understanding of the experience in the end. Add your interpretation of the poem.

It means- I am reading a mystery novel, and as I am reading the pages it makes me feel like I am there, watching everything that is going on.Who is the subject of the poem? It is me. There is a mystery going on as I read the book.
