Calvin Campbell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFEGHGIJKLL

Ye who are kicking against FateA
Tell me how it is that on this hill sideB
Running down to the riverC
Which fronts the sun and the south windD
This plant draws from the air and soilE
Poison and becomes poison ivyF
And this plant draws from the same air and soilE
Sweet elixirs and colors and becomes arbutusG
And both flourishH
You may blame Spoon River for what it isG
But whom do you blame for the will in youI
That feeds itself and makes you dock weedJ
Jimpson dandelion or mullenK
And which can never use any soil or airL
So as to make you jessamine or wistariaL
