W. Lloyd Garrison Standard Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFGHIJAKLMNOP| Vegetarian non resistant free thinker in ethics a Christian | A |
| Orator apt at the rhine stone rhythm of Ingersoll | B |
| Carnivorous avenger believer and pagan | A |
| Continent promiscuous changeable treacherous vain | C |
| Proud with the pride that makes struggle a thing for laughter | D |
| With heart cored out by the worm of theatric despair | E |
| Wearing the coat of indifference to hide the shame of defeat | F |
| I child of the abolitionist idealism | G |
| A sort of Brand in a birth of half and half | H |
| What other thing could happen when I defended | I |
| The patriot scamps who burned the court house | J |
| That Spoon River might have a new one | A |
| Than plead them guilty When Kinsey Keene drove through | K |
| The card board mask of my life with a spear of light | L |
| What could I do but slink away like the beast of myself | M |
| Which I raised from a whelp to a corner and growl | N |
| The pyramid of my life was nought but a dune | O |
| Barren and formless spoiled at last by the storm | P |
