The Visitor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI I

The walls shriek with the eyesA
of mangled pigeons the weasel's glittering teethB
the aimless thrashing of the terrifiedC
The heart clings to the prisoner's handD
Forever it beats song of the desertedE
as snipers circle about himF
And still he emerges from the crush of frozen cellsG
Absorbed in the spirals of a choked lifeH
he looks to the interior drinks from God's springI
-
And the visitor shivers He comes for nothingI
