Picture-show Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCBC DDEF| And still they come and go and this is all I know | A |
| That from the gloom I watch an endless picture show | A |
| Where wild or listless faces flicker on their way | B |
| With glad or grievous hearts I'll never understand | C |
| Because Time spins so fast and they've no time to stay | B |
| Beyond the moment's gesture of a lifted hand | C |
| - | |
| And still between the shadow and the blinding flame | D |
| The brave despair of men flings onward ever the same | D |
| As in those doom lit years that wait them and have been | E |
| And life is just the picture dancing on a screen | F |
