The Taxi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJAK| When I go away from you | A |
| The world beats dead | B |
| Like a slackened drum | C |
| I call out for you against the jutted stars | D |
| And shout into the ridges of the wind | E |
| Streets coming fast | F |
| One after the other | G |
| Wedge you away from me | H |
| And the lamps of the city prick my eyes | I |
| So that I can no longer see your face | J |
| Why should I leave you | A |
| To wound myself upon the sharp edges of the night | K |
