One Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHIJKLMNOPBQB

An eagle descends from this sky white with archangelsA
And you sustain meB
Let them tremble a long while all these lampsC
Pray pray for meB
The city s metallic and it s the only starD
Drowned in your blue eyesE
When the tramways run spurting pale fireF
Over the twittering birdsG
And all that trembles in your eyes of my dreamsH
That a lonely man drinksI
Under flames of gas red like a false dawnJ
O clothed your arm is liftedK
See the speaker stick his tongue out at the listenersL
A phantom has committed suicideM
The apostle of the fig tree hangs and slowly rotsN
Let us play this love out then to the endO
Bells with clear chimes announce your birthP
SeeB
The streets are garlanded and the palms advanceQ
Towards theeB

Guillaume Apollinaire
