The Cyclists Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCB CDEEC FGGEH CBGIE

Spread on the roadwayA
With open blown jacketsB
Like black soaring pinionsB
They swoop down the hillsideC
The CyclistsB
-
Seeming dark plumagedC
Birds after carrionD
Careening and circlingE
Over the dyingE
Of EnglandC
-
She lies with her bosomF
Beneath them no longerG
The Dominant MotherG
The Virile but rottingE
Before timeH
-
The smell of her taintedC
Has bitten their nostrilsB
Exultant they hoverG
And shadow the sun withI
ForebodingE
