Early Occult Memory Systems Of The Lower Midwest Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IJKLMNOP QRSTUVWX| In his fifth year the son deep in the backseat | A |
| of his father's Ford and the mysterium | B |
| of time holds time in memory with words | C |
| night this night on the way to a stalled rig south | D |
| of Kiowa Creek where the plains wind stacks | E |
| the skeletons of weeds on barbed wire fences | F |
| and rattles the battered DeKalb sign to make | G |
| the child think of time in its passing of death | H |
| - | |
| Cattle stare at flat bed haulers gunning clumps | I |
| of black smoke and lugging damaged drill pipe | J |
| up the gullied mud hollowed road Road this | K |
| road Roustabouts shouting from the crow's nest | L |
| float like Ascension angels on a ring of lights | M |
| Chokecherries gouge the purpled sky cloud | N |
| swags running the moon under and starlight | O |
| rains across the Ford's blue hood Blue this blue | P |
| - | |
| Later where black flies haunt the mud tank | Q |
| the boy walks along the pipe rack dragging | R |
| a stick across the hollow ends to make a kind | S |
| of music and the creek throbs with frog songs | T |
| locusts the rasp of tree limbs blown and scattered | U |
| The great horse people his father these sounds | V |
| these shapes saved from time's dark creek as the car | W |
| moves across the moving earth world this world | X |
