I like what @71degrees mentioned about this poem feeling like a pendulum swinging. I would draw that rhythmic feeling out by keeping the stanzas the same length.
The action of the poem is clear to me in the 2nd and 3rd stanzas, but unclear in the 4th. I caught the "elephant in the room" theme, but I missed it in the 1st stanza. What's the elephant there?
