Sonnet For The End Of A Sequence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGGSo take my vows and scatter them to sea | A |
Who swears the sweetest is no more than human | B |
And say no kinder words than these of me | A |
Ever she longed for peace but was a woman | B |
And thus they are whose silly female dust | C |
Needs little enough to clutter it and bind it | D |
Who meet a slanted gaze and ever must | C |
Go build themselves a soul to dwell behind it | D |
- | |
For now I am my own again my friend | E |
This scar but points the whiteness of my breast | F |
This frenzy like its betters spins an end | E |
And now I am my own And that is best | F |
Therefore I am immeasurably grateful | G |
To you for proving shallow false and hateful | G |
