Ah, Koelue Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEFAGHIJKLAMDINO MPCAh Koelue | A |
Had you embalmed your beauty so | B |
It could not backward go | B |
Or change in any way | C |
What were the use if on my eyes | D |
The embalming spices were not laid | E |
To keep us fixed | F |
Two amorous sculptures passioned endlessly | A |
What were the use if my sight grew | G |
And its far branches were cloud hung | H |
You small at the roots like grass | I |
While the new lips my spirit would kiss | J |
Were not red lips of flesh | K |
But the huge kiss of power | L |
Where yesterday soft hair through my fingers fell | A |
A shaggy mane would entwine | M |
And no slim form work fire to my thighs | D |
But human Life's inarticulate mass | I |
Throb the pulse of a thing | N |
Whose mountain flanks awry | O |
Beg my mastery mine | M |
Ah I will ride the dizzy beast of the world | P |
My road my way | C |
