Soldier: Twentieth Century Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB CDED FGCG HIJK

I love you great new TitanA
Am I not youB
Napoleon or CaesarC
Out of you grewB
-
Out of the unthinkable tortureC
Eyes kissed by deathD
Won back to the world againE
Lost and won in a breathD
-
Cruel men are made immortalF
Out of your pain bornG
They have stolen the sun s powerC
With their feet on your shoulders wornG
-
Let them shrink from your girthH
That has outgrown the pallid daysI
When you slept like Circe s swineJ
Or a word in the brain s wayK
