The Assassination Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHIJ KLMNOIt begins again the nocturnal pulse | A |
It courses through the cables laid for it | B |
It mounts to the chandeliers and beats there hotly | C |
We are too close Too late we would move back | D |
We are involved with the surge | E |
- | |
Now it bursts Now it has been announced | F |
Now it is being soaked up by newspapers | G |
Now it is running through the streets | H |
The crowd has it The woman selling carnations | I |
And the man in the straw hat stand with it in their shoes | J |
- | |
Here is the red marquee it sheltered under | K |
Here is the ballroom here | L |
The sadly various orchestra led | M |
By a single gesture My arms open | N |
It enters Look we are dancing | O |
