The Assassination Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHIJ KLMNO| It 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 |
