The Passionate Freudian To His Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDDEDFGHG DIJIKLMNOPQP PRDRSDTDUVWVOnly name the day and we'll fly away | A |
In the face of old traditions | B |
To a sheltered spot by the world forgot | C |
Where we'll park our inhibitions | B |
Come and gaze in eyes where the lovelight lies | D |
As it psychoanalyzes | D |
And when once you glean what your fantasies mean | E |
Life will hold no more surprises | D |
When you've told your love what you're thinking of | F |
Things will be much more informal | G |
Through a sunlit land we'll go hand in hand | H |
Drifting gently back to normal | G |
- | |
While the pale moon gleams we will dream sweet dreams | D |
And I'll win your admiration | I |
For it's only fair to admit I'm there | J |
With a mean interpretation | I |
In the sunrise glow we will whisper low | K |
Of the scenes our dreams have painted | L |
And when you're advised what they symbolized | M |
We'll begin to feel acquainted | N |
So we'll gaily float in a slumber boat | O |
Where subconscious waves dash wildly | P |
In the stars' soft light we will say good night | Q |
And good night will put it mildly | P |
- | |
Our desires shall be from repressions free | P |
As it's only right to treat them | R |
To your ego's whims I will sing sweet hymns | D |
And ad libido repeat them | R |
With your hand in mine idly we'll recline | S |
Amid bowers of neuroses | D |
While the sun seeks rest in the great red west | T |
We will sit and match psychoses | D |
So come dwell a while on that distant isle | U |
In the brilliant tropic weather | V |
Where a Freud in need is a Freud indeed | W |
We'll always be Jung together | V |
