      1. Enjambment: This is the most powerful device used in the poem with strategically cut-off lines that run into the next. One stark example would be “next to of course god america i”. 
      2. Oxymoron: An example would be “heroic happy dead”.
      3. Alliteration: Examples would be “glorious name by gorry/by jingo by gee by gosh by gum” and “heroic happy”.
