Cemetery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCDAE FGHIJ IKLJMNJO| Who whispers here is forgotten | A |
| - | |
| Saliva's emptiest fruit | B |
| adorns the stones | C |
| words ripening your mouth | D |
| to a spoilation | A |
| of silence | E |
| - | |
| Who speaks here | F |
| reads a text that downloads | G |
| the screen of his fingernail | H |
| through which nothing's visible | I |
| as glass is | J |
| - | |
| For the memorial | I |
| we must kneel | K |
| to pick each flower | L |
| from amongst its modifiers | J |
| but to do that | M |
| one needs a hand bared | N |
| of all uses of all trades | J |
| as ours is not | O |
