These Men Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEF| Men moving in a trench in the clear noon | A |
| Whetting their steel within the crumbling earth | B |
| Men moving in a trench neath a new moon | A |
| That smiles with a slit mouth and has no mirth | B |
| Men moving in a trench in the grey morn | C |
| Lifting bodies on their clotted frames | D |
| Men with narrow mouths thin carved in scorn | C |
| That twist and fumble strangely at dead names | D |

| These men know life know death a little more | E |
| These men see paths and ends and see | F |
| Beyond some swinging open door | E |
| Into eternity | F |
