Gargoyle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCI SAW a mouth jeering A smile of melted red iron ran over it Its laugh was full of nails rattling It was a child's dream of a mouth | A |
A fist hit the mouth knuckles of gun metal driven by an electric wrist and shoulder It was a child's dream of an arm | B |
The fist hit the mouth over and over again and again The mouth bled melted iron and laughed its laughter of nails rattling | C |
And I saw the more the fist pounded the more the mouth laughed The fist is pounding and pounding and the mouth answering | C |
