Desire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDE| Bright eyes sweet lips with many fevers fill | A |
| The young blood running wildly as it must | B |
| But lips and eyes beget a strange distrust | B |
| Electric fingers send the sudden thrill | A |
| Through senses unsubservient to the will | A |
| The flames die down and leave a dim disgust | B |
| Unfragrant kisses turn to drouth and dust | B |
| I kiss I feast but I am hungry still | A |
| - | |
| O woman woman passionate but strong | C |
| True to thy love as needle to the pole | D |
| True to the truth and not alone to me | E |
| O mate and friend elusive in the throng | C |
| With thy clear brows thy straight and upright soul | D |
| Nameless unknown my hunger is for thee | E |
