Evolutions Of Soldiers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EFGGThe red range heaves and compulsory sways ah see in the flush of a march | A |
Softly impulsive advancing as water towards a weir from the arch | A |
Of shadow emerging as blood emerges from inward shades of our night | B |
Encroaching towards a crisis a meeting a spasm and throb of delight | B |
- | |
The wave of soldiers the coming wave the throbbing red breast of approach | C |
Upon us dark eyes as here beneath the busbies glittering dark threats that broach | C |
Our beached vessel darkened rencontre inhuman and closed warm lips and dark | D |
Mouth hair of soldiers passing above us over the wreck of our bark | D |
- | |
And so it is ebb time they turn the eyes beneath the busbies are gone | E |
But the blood has suspended its timbre the heart from out of oblivion | F |
Knows but the retreat of the burning shoulders the red swift waves of the sweet | G |
Fire horizontal declining and ebbing the twilit ebb of retreat | G |
