A Gas Butterfly Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABC DEFG HIGJ KLMN

Tell me what's happening to meA
Why is my heart beating so ferventlyA
why has this madness like a waveB
Broken through the rock of habitC
-
Is it my strength or just my tormentD
I'm too disturbed to tellE
From the shimmering lines of lifeF
I extract a forgotten phraseG
-
Is it a thief who turns his lanternH
Upon the crowd of dreary lettersI
I can't help reading the phraseG
But haven't the strength to go backJ
-
It really had to flare upK
But it only harries the darknessL
All night like a gas flame butterflyM
It trembles but cannot escapeN
