Getting the hidden meanings: meaning is in the text; a good reader finds what is there and understands what the author meant. Meaning is objectively there prior to our reading. Reading too much into it: meaning is in the eye of the beholder; my reading is just my opinion, but since my opinion is what counts, that"s ok. The poet may notice words in an ad or conversation, write them down, and then rearrange them into a pleasing and meaningful pattern, thus, a found poem. (introduction to literature 143) Title (main topic, name of text or author, or else it is too general)
