Sonnet Of Death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHICJICJ| From out the rumpled home of dreadful things | A |
| A clearing light emerges Far beyond | B |
| The hills lurch deep into the night Bells ring | C |
| aloud They drown the darkness with their sound | D |
| Ring clear through vale and rising ground that's far | E |
| Away from all the living and the dead | F |
| The long procession leads up to the fire | G |
| A forest clearing wilderness's end | H |
| Foul smelling smoke rises tortures the nose | I |
| Of each and every mourner Sickening | C |
| And sweet the burning stench of human meat | J |
| Allows for no quick solace no repose | I |
| From the spectre of death that's quickening | C |
| The grim procession's egress from the heat | J |
