Poetry / Poetry analysis paper (Academy of American Poets). Where to start? [2]

This question is regarding a final paper for a master's class.

The final assignment is to write a 2000 word essay comparing and contrasting two different poems. I have barely scratched through the previous two papers and made a C on them both. I can not get detailed enough for this teacher. I don't know what two poems to even begin with...and then determining a thesis about them...I am stuck! Can someone give me some brain prompts to get started? (The poems should come from Academy of American Poets)

Thanks soo much!!
