Progression Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA DEDF GAHIA JKKJ| See that satan pollarding a tree | A |
| That geometric man straightening a road | B |
| Surely such passions are perverse and odd | C |
| That violate windows and set the north wind free | A |
| - | |
| No doubt tomorrow the world will be too straight | D |
| Five hundred miles an hour will churn our dreams | E |
| Like surprised whales when we lie a dead weight | D |
| In an ignorant sleep and things will be what they seem | F |
| - | |
| Tomorrow we will hear on the gramophone | G |
| The music of the Spheres registered H M V | A |
| By a divorced contralto we shall perhaps | H |
| Meet Adam under glass in a museum | I |
| Fleshless and most unlovely complete with pedigree | A |
| - | |
| Or else tomorrow workers kings and crooks | J |
| Will all have aeroplanes and be fast friends | K |
| In a world no longer divided by dividends | K |
| Where love will be almost as simple as it looks | J |
