Answer:

The lines from Levertov's "Overheard over S.E. Asia" begin with a rhythm and diction that create a notably flat atmosphere.

Among Levertov's many anti-Vietnam poems, these opening lines exhibit a subdued, almost emotionless mood as the imagery of white phosphorus falling like snow appears. As the poem proceeds, the tone evolves from this flat introduction into a more dynamic and intense expression.
