Desire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDEBright 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 |
