The traditional meter or rhyme would have been out of place here .The poem is a sort of dramatic mologue.monologue is a lenghty speech by a single person.
Language
The poet uses consciously uses simple and colloquial language. The intended effect is grotesque and comical. Ezekiel also make fun of indian speakers of english by using faulty expressions:-
