Open Stage Poetry Reading Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI JKLMELNOP| After the one that sings and after the one | A |
| that can make up poems of a kind right on the spot | B |
| after a girl who didn't walk very well | C |
| took five minutes to get from her seat to the stage | D |
| then read one poem with hardly any words in it | E |
| and halted the whole way back in a staggering silence | F |
| after the bald one's rhymes about this teeth | G |
| a woman got up whose poems won't write down | H |
| it's all in the way the voices in her come out | I |
| - | |
| We went to a medium once and a woman locked | J |
| in a trance let a dead man come inside her and talk | K |
| She held herself like a woman being a man | L |
| That's what it was at the open stage poetry reading | M |
| and I left without talking I hadn't come expecting it | E |
| What could I have told her I think it's a dead man | L |
| It wasn't something I wanted to get that close to | N |
| I could never do it myself let a dead man come in | O |
| or would it be into me a dead woman that would come | P |
