Dunes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEFGHIJKLMB| What do we see here in the sand dunes of the white | A |
| moon alone with our thoughts Bill | B |
| Alone with our dreams Bill soft as the women tying | C |
| scarves around their heads dancing | C |
| Alone with a picture and a picture coming one after the | D |
| other of all the dead | E |
| The dead more than all these grains of sand one by one | F |
| piled here in the moon | G |
| Piled against the sky line taking shapes like the hand of | H |
| the wind wanted | I |
| What do we see here Bill outside of what the wise men | J |
| beat their heads on | K |
| Outside of what the poets cry for and the soldiers drive | L |
| on headlong and leave their skulls in the sun for | M |
| what Bill | B |
