This is not a "style" of poem in particular. Longing is added after cold stew because it would be too obvious to add that the woman is longing - the stew is a medium for the way she feels: the longing and loneliness that accompanies a dishonest marriage. And "heard in their bedroom" is different than "heard by their bedroom." The bedroom is not doing the hearing and I'm not sure how you arrived at that reading.
