Hell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCDEFGHIJKLMNOR B VAUGHN speaks | A |
- | |
- | |
After so many years of pursuing the ideal | B |
I came home But I had caught sight of it | C |
You see it sometimes in the blue silver wake | D |
Of island schooners bound for Anegada say | E |
And it takes other forms I saw it flickering once | F |
In torches by the railroad tracks in Medell n | G |
When I was very young I thought that love would come | H |
And seize and take me south and I would see the rose | I |
And that all ambiguities we knew would merge | J |
Like orchids on a word Say this | K |
I sought the immortal word | L |
So saying he went on | M |
To join those who preceded him | N |
and there were those that followed | O |
