Words in the poem set a mysterious picture and really leaving one questioning what they mean, and what they want they want the reader to get out of the words. “ For things undone, unattained.” Rhythm really goes with the vocab for the fact that the rhythm is enjoyable. Reputation isn’t annoying, but very understanding. Rhythm is relaxing, “ to these add one; love withheld, restrained,”
