Voyages V Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGHI JKLH HMNO PQH RSAPAMeticulous past midnight in clear rime | A |
Infrangible and lonely smooth as though cast | B |
Together in one merciless white blade | C |
The bay estuaries fleck the hard sky limits | D |
- | |
As if too brittle or too clear to touch | E |
The cables of our sleep so swiftly filed | F |
Already hang shred ends from remembered stars | G |
One frozen trackless smile What words | H |
Can strangle this deaf moonlight For we | I |
- | |
Are overtaken Now no cry no sword | J |
Can fasten or deflect this tidal wedge | K |
Slow tyranny of moonlight moonlight loved | L |
And changed 'There's | H |
- | |
Nothing like this in the world ' you say | H |
is Knowing I cannot touch your hand and look | M |
Too into that godless cleft of sky | N |
Where nothing turns but dead sands flashing | O |
- | |
' And never to quite understand ' No | P |
In all the argosy of your bright hair I dreamed | Q |
Nothing so flagless as this piracy | H |
- | |
But now | R |
Draw in your head alone and too tall here | S |
Your eyes already in the slant of drifting foam | A |
Your breath sealed by the ghosts I do not know | P |
Draw in your head and sleep the long way home | A |
