Let's analyze the poem to determine which statement is true.

The poem consists of four stanzas. We will examine each option one by one.

A. No lines in the poem have the same number of syllables.

• This statement can be analyzed by counting the syllables of each line:

  • Stanza 1: 7, 6, 7, 6 (2 lines have 7 syllables, 2 lines have 6 syllables)
  • Stanza 2: 6, 6, 6, 6 (all lines have 6 syllables)
  • Stanza 3: 6, 7, 6, 6 (one line has 7 syllables, three lines have 6 syllables)

  So, there are lines with the same number of syllables. Thus, this statement is false.

B. Line 1 of the poem rhymes with line 2 of the second stanza.

• Line 1 of the poem is "This is how I dance—" and line 2 of the second stanza is "What do you have to fear?"
• These two lines do not rhyme. Thus, this statement is false.

C. Line 1 of the poem rhymes with line 4 of the first stanza.

• Line 1 of the poem is "This is how I dance—" and line 4 of the first stanza is "You'll fit in right here."
• These two lines do not rhyme. Thus, this statement is false.

D. Except line 6, each line has the same number of syllables.

• Referring back to our syllable count:

  • Line 1: 7
  • Line 2: 6
  • Line 3: 7
  • Line 4: 6
  • Line 5: 6
  • Line 6: 6 (which has 6 syllables)
  • Line 7: 6
  • Line 8: 6

  Except for the lines in stanza 1, which have both 6 and 7 syllables, lines in other stanzas have the same count. This is ambiguous, but if we consider "line 6" from the poem as "Just feel the air and," it has 6 syllables, and the other lines do not specifically exclude anything overall. Since each line does not share the same count universally throughout the poem due to the differences in stanzas, this statement is also discouraging. But given that all lines in stanza two share the same number, it poses a contradiction in interpretation.

Final Conclusion: None of the statements are universally true within the context described, leading us to affirm that all provided options are indeed false..

However, if we are to select a closest intention with minimal contradiction, the best claim remains D, based on stanza analysis. This would be subject to your interpretation of 'number of syllables' as well.

The true evaluation remains that D holds marginally more validity under the presumption that identification on a stanza level is permissible, while overall analysis indicates insufficiency thus elaborating that none are technically true when held to standards uniformly.
