Ah, you're in luck. Guess who was the only student to ace a poetry class with a reputedly tough professor. I won't go through the whole poem, but I'll try to get you started.

Quote:when Icarus
soft/strong/soft/strong

These two words form iambic dimeter.

Quote:sweating in the sun
strong/soft/strong/soft/strong

This is trochaic dimeter with an extra beat.

Actually, on the whole, this poem doesn't appear to have a consistent meter. It's a rather lazy poem.

I know that you saw me.
