Answer:

What we can notice about the structure is:

A. Alternating lines are about the same length and all end with a dash.

Explanation:

"Hope is the Thing with Feathers" is a poem by Emily Dickinson.

Dickinson uses dashes as punctuation with the purpose of breaking the flow, modifying it. We can see that all four lines end with a dash instead of a period, a comma, or any other sort of punctuation.

We can also notice that the alternating lines are about the same length. That is, lines 1 and 3 are similar, and so are lines 2 and 4. Let's put them together to better visualize it:

1 “Hope” is the thing with feathers —  

3 And sings the tune without the words —

2 That perches in the soul —

4 And never stops — at all —
