Picture-show Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCBC DDEFAnd 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 |
