Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMN

This morning Hitler spoke in Danzig we hear his voiceA
A man of genius that is of amazingB
Ability courage devotion cored on a sick child's soulC
Heard clearly through the dog wrath a sick childD
Wailing in Danzig invoking destruction and wailing at itE
Here the day was extremely hot about noonF
A south wind like a blast from hell's mouth spilled a slight rainG
On the parched land and at five a light earthquakeH
Danced the house no harm done Tonight I have been amusing myselfI
Watching the blood red moon droop slowlyJ
Into the black sea through bursts of dry lightning and distant thunderK
Well the day is a poem but too muchL
Like one of Jeffers's crusted with blood and barbaric omensM
Painful to excess inhuman as a hawk's cryN
