In The Stalls Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABA CDCDC EFEFE AGAGA| My life is like a music hall | A |
| Where in the impotence of rage | B |
| Chained by enchantment to my stall | A |
| I see myself upon the stage | B |
| Dance to amuse a music hall | A |
| - | |
| 'Tis I that smoke this cigarette | C |
| Lounge here and laugh for vacancy | D |
| And watch the dancers turn and yet | C |
| It is my very self I see | D |
| Across the cloudy cigarette | C |
| - | |
| My very self that turns and trips | E |
| Painted pathetically gay | F |
| An empty song upon the lips | E |
| In make believe of holiday | F |
| I I this thing that turns and trips | E |
| - | |
| The light flares in the music hall | A |
| The light the sound that weary us | G |
| Hour follows hour I count them all | A |
| Lagging and loud and riotous | G |
| My life is like a music hall | A |
