Untitled: Back They Sputter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEFG HIBack they sputter like the fires of love the bees to their broken home | A |
Which they're putting together again for dear life knowing nothing | B |
Of the heart beating under their floorboards besieged here seeking | B |
A life of its own All day their brisk shadows zigzag and flicker | C |
- | |
Along a whitewashed gable trafficking in and out of a hair crack | D |
Under wooden eaves where they make a life for themselves that knows | E |
No let up through hours of exploration and return their thighs golden | F |
With pollen their multitudinous eyes stapled to a single purpose | G |
- | |
To make winter safe for their likes stack packing the queen's chambers | H |
With sweetness Later listen one warm humming note their night music | I |
