Like nearly all of Williams’ work‚ "Danse Russe" has no meter nor does it follow any rhyme scheme whatsoever. Disregarding an iamb or steady beat pattern‚ the poem’s rhythm is organic‚ rather than metrical‚ meaning that the poem flows smoothly from one line to the next without any guidelines to follow. It is almost as if the poem is to be read as a small statement or random thought occurring inside the

    When reading the title‚ we often associate a love song as something jaunty‚pleasureable‚ and celebrating‚ or its other extreme‚ regretting‚ nostalgic‚ and full of pity for the singer’s troubles in love.

From this concept stem the ideas that this poem is about hopelessness or happiness‚ communal
