Tear it apart; Help on understanding poetry

When I look at a poem that I 've never read before I make sure I study it carefully so that I can understand it fully. Here is the way I go about studying a poem:

After I read through it a couple times and get a good understanding of what it's about, I begin to look at details.

The title. Is it intriguing? Does it make me want to read more? Is it dull? Could I come up with a better title?
The format. Is it annoying? Does it go with the poem, for instance a funny poem to have funny formatting? What would make it more visually appealing?
The content. Is the point of the poem clear (it doesn't have to be of course)? Did I feel confused while I read it? If so, did the confusion cause some sort of feeling at the end? Was this written this way to bring across an idea?
Me. What did I learn from this poem? How can I use this poem to help my own poetry? How did I feel after the  poem?

Of course there are TONS of other questions you could ask. This is just giving you a base. When you ask one question it usually leads to another one. So enjoy! My tip is: Read lots of poetry. It will help you write your own.
