Warren employs a combination of crisp symbolic and concrete visual imagery and a variety of near-rhymes, off-rhymes, assonance, consonance, and onomatopoeia to create a verbal texture suggesting busy-ness and alarm. For example, verbs such as "hum-drumming" and "zigzagging" sound like the actions they name. By using words that so accurately embody physical actions they also represent, Warren closes the distance between speaker and reader.
