Two Neighbors Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIIAAJFaces of two eternities keep looking at me | A |
One is Omar Khayam and the red stuff | B |
wherein men forget yesterday and to morrow | C |
and remember only the voices and songs | D |
the stories newspapers and fights of today | E |
One is Louis Cornaro and a slim trick | F |
of slow short meals across slow short years | G |
letting Death open the door only in slow short inches | H |
I have a neighbor who swears by Omar | I |
I have a neighbor who swears by Cornaro | I |
Both are happy | A |
Faces of two eternities keep looking at me | A |
Let them look | J |
