1. "Texts may be complex and even unstable in some ways; they do not affect all readers the same way, and they work through language that has its own volatilities and complexities." (pg. 618)
2. I think volatilities could possibly mean having different meanings.
3. Volatiles - changeable (dictionary.com)
4. My guess was close but I didn't fully understand the word. The word in this sentence is describing language that is used when writing poetry. Certain words may have more than one meaning but the meaning can also change depending on the reader. For example a person might interpret a sentence in one way but after rereading it, their understanding may be expanded. Also, different raders may interpret it differently.
