Compact Dusk Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDCD EFE GHE| Here at the height of the day night change | A |
| The color of the sky is uncertain | B |
| The sky depending in which direction | B |
| One's eye strains each of its swatches a strange | A |
| - | |
| Hue which dies too soon and which makes this hour | C |
| Linger in the mind transient as a life | D |
| Whose names once known remain another | C |
| Posied up portrait on our palette knife | D |
| - | |
| Until even I wonder if one tint | E |
| Ever survives the harm of seeming unique | F |
| Evening's intrigue time's singularity | E |
| - | |
| Study for its trace its placemap I see | G |
| Redundant as a stopsign in italic | H |
| The face on which my profile leaves no print | E |
