As Much As You Can Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHIJ

And if you can't shape your life the way you wantA
at least try as much as you canB
not to degrade itC
by too much contact with the worldD
by too much activity and talkE
-
Try not to degrade it by dragging it alongF
taking it around and exposing it so oftenG
to the daily sillinessH
of social events and partiesI
until it comes to seem a boring hanger onJ
