What are some names of poems who's meanings are often debated because of different point of view?

For example: the poem "My Papa's Waltz" can be viewed as a poem about a little child dancing with thier father before bedtime or as a poem about an abusive father beating his child up. I'm having trouble finding poetry that has either a deeper meaning than the surface words or that can be seen in two different ways. Please help!! =) Thank you!

We are worth more than your pale white


skin. Not a penny less but a thousand


billion pennies more. Mixtures of different


colors: caramel, chestnut and


rouge.
