The House Of Dust: Part 01: 08: The White Fog Creeps From The Cold Sea Over The City Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDD EFGF HHIJI| The white fog creeps from the cold sea over the city | A |
| Over the pale grey tumbled towers | B |
| And settles among the roofs the pale grey walls | C |
| Along damp sinuous streets it crawls | C |
| Curls like a dream among the motionless trees | D |
| And seems to freeze | D |
| - | |
| The fog slips ghostlike into a thousand rooms | E |
| Whirls over sleeping faces | F |
| Spins in an atomy dance round misty street lamps | G |
| And blows in cloudy waves over open spaces | F |
| - | |
| And one from his high window looking down | H |
| Peers at the cloud white town | H |
| And thinks its island towers are like a dream | I |
| It seems an enormous sleeper within whose brain | J |
| Laborious shadows revolve and break and gleam | I |
