You'd Entertain The Universe In Bed Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IJKLMNOPQ R

You'd entertain the universe in bedA
Foul woman ennui makes you mean of soulB
To exercise your jaws at this strange sportC
Each day you work a heart between your teethD
Your eyes illuminated like boutiquesE
Or blazing stanchions at a public fairF
Use haughtily a power not their ownG
With no awareness of their beauty's lawH
-
Blind deaf machine fertile in crueltiesI
Valuable tool that drinks the whole world's bloodJ
Why are you not ashamed how have you notK
In mirrors seen your many charms turn paleL
The magnitude of all your evil schemesM
Has this then never shrunk your heart with fearN
When Nature mighty in her secret plansO
Makes use of you o woman queen of sinsP
Of you vile beast to mould a geniusQ
-
O filthy grandeur o sublime disgraceR

Charles Baudelaire
