Baudelaire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDEEI think I understand you Baudelaire | A |
With all your strangeness and perverted ways | B |
You whose fierce hatred of dull working days | B |
Led you to seek your macabre visions there | A |
Where shrouded night came creeping to ensnare | A |
Your phantomfevered brain with subtle maze | B |
Of decompos d loves remorse dismays | B |
And all the gnawing of a world's despair | A |
Within my soul you've set your blackest flag | C |
And made my disillusioned heart your tomb | D |
My mind which once was young and virginal | E |
Is now a swamp a spleenfilled pregnant womb | D |
Of things abominable things androgynal | E |
Flowers of Dissolution Fleurs du Mal | E |
