He stepped out of the shadows and walked towards me. He was dressed in a bright blue suit and had savage eyes that twitched furiously.

Poe makes us understand that the narrator is mad by making him talk and shout directly at us‚ by using exclamation marks as his punctuation.

Lorna Dee Cervantes: Beneath the Shadow of the Freeway The form of the poem is not easy to determine. It consists of six stanzas of uneven length‚ which are‚ except for the first and fifth‚ again divided into sub-stanzas.
