Tonight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEF GHCCI JCCKLM| For decades I was that lonely stranger | A |
| stranded in the poor shell of humdrum | B |
| Awaiting the sun to get enshrouded by the dark lining of darkness | C |
| so the moon could breed a light as dull as a ditchwater | A |
| But who am I to jest the moon | D |
| For me a subdued being a clown cloned | E |
| by a tragedy called Heartache | F |
| - | |
| A whole month I had kept spruceness on me | G |
| sprayed sandalwood and patchouli on my pitted suit | H |
| which I had acceded from my Abuelo a chain smoker whose lips as black as darkness | C |
| And when he belches | C |
| even the strongest of all froghopper wouldn't combat to breathe its last | I |
| - | |
| But tonight the moon seems a slender crescent | J |
| I shall tour the boulevard and importune my loneliness | C |
| Tonight let it be ephemeral like the fortuity life brings | C |
| Life today is a bed of roses and tomorrow a thorn in the flesh | K |
| Today as sweet as a vial of rose oil and tomorrow as bitter as wormwood | L |
| Tonight let me move towards a Demoiselle | M |
