A Lieutenant General Sings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEFGHBIJKGKILMB

I am the Division CommanderA
His ExcellencyB
I have attained what is humanly possibleC
A lovely consciousnessD
In front of meB
Important people and chiefs of regimentsE
Bend their kneesF
And my generalsG
Obey my commandsH
God willing my next command will beB
An entire military corpsI
Women drama musicJ
Do not interest me muchK
Compared to parades and battlesG
That does not amount to muchK
Would that there were an endless warI
With bloody howling windsL
Ordinary lifeM
Has no charm for meB
