Enemies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFFHe stood alone in some queer sunless place | A |
Where Armageddon ends Perhaps he longed | B |
For days he might have lived but his young face | A |
Gazed forth untroubled and suddenly there thronged | B |
Round him the hulking Germans that I shot | C |
When for his death my brooding rage was hot | C |
- | |
He stared at them half wondering and then | D |
They told him how I'd killed them for his sake | E |
Those patient stupid sullen ghosts of men | D |
And still there seemed no answer he could make | E |
At last he turned and smiled One took his hand | F |
Because his face could make them understand | F |
