Metro-goldwyn-mayer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABA BCB DCD EE| I looked toward the movie the common dream | A |
| The he and she in close ups nearer than life | B |
| And I accepted such things as they seem | A |
| - | |
| The easy poise the absence of the knife | B |
| The near summer happily ever after | C |
| The understood question the immediate strife | B |
| - | |
| Not dangerous nor mortal but the fadeout | D |
| Enormously kissing amid warm laughter | C |
| As if such things were not always played out | D |
| - | |
| By an ignorant arm which crosses the dark | E |
| And lights up a thin sheet with a shadow's mark | E |
