Friday Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGHIJKJKK

We nailed the hands long agoA
Wove the thorns took up the scourge and shoutedB
For excitement's sake we stood at the dusty edgeC
Of the pebbled path and watched the extreme of painD
-
But one or two prayed one or twoE
Were silent shocked stood backF
And remembered remnants of words a new visionG
The cross is up with its crying victim the cloudsH
Cover the sun we learn a new way to loseI
What we did not know we hadJ
Until this bleak and sacrificial dayK
Until we turned from our badJ
Past and knelt and cried out our dismayK
The dice still clicking the voices dying awayK
