The Rites For Cousin Vit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFGGEH| Carried her unprotesting out the door | A |
| Kicked back the casket stand But it can't hold her | B |
| That stuff and satin aiming to enfold her | B |
| The lid's contrition nor the bolts before | A |
| Oh oh Too much Too much Even now surmise | C |
| She rises in the sunshine There she goes | D |
| Back to the bars she knew and the repose | D |
| In love rooms and the things in people's eyes | C |
| Too vital and too squeaking Must emerge | E |
| Even now she does the snake hips with a hiss | F |
| Slops the bad wine across her shantung talks | G |
| Of pregnancy guitars and bridgework walks | G |
| In parks or alleys comes haply on the verge | E |
| Of happiness haply hysterics Is | H |
