Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH I JKLMGKNK H KOKPHKQ

To day this insect and the world I breatheA
Now that my symbols have outelbowed spaceB
Time at the city spectacles and halfC
The dear daft time I take to nudge the sentenceD
In trust and tale I have divided senseE
Slapped down the guillotine the blood red doubleF
Of head and tail made witnesses to thisG
Murder of Eden and green genesisH
-
The insect certain is the plague of fablesI
-
This story's monster has a serpent caulJ
Blind in the coil scrams round the blazing outlineK
Measures his own length on the garden wallL
And breaks his shell in the last shocked beginningM
A crocodile before the chrysalisG
Before the fall from love the flying heartboneK
Winged like a sabbath ass this children's pieceN
Uncredited blows Jericho on EdenK
-
The insect fable is the certain promiseH
-
Death death of Hamlet and the nightmare madmenK
An air drawn windmill on a wooden horseO
John's beast Job's patience and the fibs of visionK
Greek in the Irish sea the ageless voiceP
'Adam I love my madmen's love is endlessH
No tell tale lover has an end more certainK
All legends' sweethearts on a tree of storiesQ
My cross of tales behind the fabulous curtain '-
