Part Of Speech Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFGHIJI K L| and when the future is uttered swarms of mice | A |
| rush out of the Russian language and gnaw a piece | B |
| of ripened memory which is twice | A |
| as hole ridden as real cheese | C |
| After all these years it hardly matters who | D |
| or what stands in the corner hidden by heavy drapes | E |
| and your mind resounds not with a seraphic doh | F |
| only their rustle Life that no one dares | G |
| to appraise like that gift horse's mouth | H |
| bares its teeth in a grin at each | I |
| encounter What gets left of a man amounts | J |
| to a part To his spoken part To a part of speech | I |
