The Visitor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI IThe walls shriek with the eyes | A |
of mangled pigeons the weasel's glittering teeth | B |
the aimless thrashing of the terrified | C |
The heart clings to the prisoner's hand | D |
Forever it beats song of the deserted | E |
as snipers circle about him | F |
And still he emerges from the crush of frozen cells | G |
Absorbed in the spirals of a choked life | H |
he looks to the interior drinks from God's spring | I |
- | |
And the visitor shivers He comes for nothing | I |
