Dynamiter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMHHHJH| I sat with a dynamiter at supper in a German saloon | A |
| eating steak and onions | B |
| And he laughed and told stories of his wife and children | C |
| and the cause of labor and the working class | D |
| It was laughter of an unshakable man knowing life to be | E |
| a rich and red blooded thing | F |
| Yes his laugh rang like the call of gray birds filled with | G |
| a glory of joy ramming their winged flight through | H |
| a rain storm | I |
| His name was in many newspapers as an enemy of the | J |
| nation and few keepers of churches or schools would | K |
| open their doors to him | L |
| Over the steak and onions not a word was said of his | M |
| deep days and nights as a dynamiter | H |
| Only I always remember him as a lover of life a lover | H |
| of children a lover of all free reckless laughter | H |
| everywhere lover of red hearts and red blood the | J |
| world over | H |
