The correct answer is B. it does not follow a formal structure.
Let us first go through all of these options in order to determine the structural characteristics of <em>Forgetfulness, </em>by Billy Collins.
Option A is incorrect - if you count the syllables in each line, you will see that the first one has 11, the second one 13, and so on - so, not 10.
Option C is also incorrect - there are actually 8 stanzas, and they are not of equal length.
Option D is also incorrect - there are no rhymes in this poem.
So, by the process of elimination, the correct answer is B - this poem doesn't follow a formal structure - it is rather a free verse poem containing stanzas of varying lengths.
The Ring of Fire is a ring of volcanoes around the Pacific Ocean that result from subduction of oceanic plates beneath lighter continental plates. Good luck hopefully this helps! Please mark brain if so!:)

We can observe that there two parts of this full sentence and each part is independent from each other. Both of them have their own subject and verb. Therefore, we are using a comma before <em>and</em>.
