One Cigarette Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDECFGHIJKLMNO

No smoke without you my fireA
After you leftB
your cigarette glowed on in my ashtrayC
and sent up a long thread of such quiet greyC
I smiled to wonder who would believe its signalD
of so much love One cigaretteE
in the non smoker's trayC
As the last spireF
trembles up a sudden draughtG
blows it winding into my faceH
Is it smell is it tasteI
You are here again and I am drunk on your tobacco lipsJ
Out with the lightK
Let the smoke lie back in the darkL
Till I hear the very ashM
sigh down among the flowers of brassN
I'll breathe and long past midnight your last kissO
