Let Me Write Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAA CDE FGHIJKLMNHHOPPQRHHAnd let me have all the freedom I need | A |
Let me write my scarred frustrations | B |
on this paper and make the pen bleed | A |
Time wounds all heels and sowing this literary crop unreaps the mighty seed | A |
- | |
I hung on to similes and metaphors like they were dear life | C |
My bosom vibrates to the feel of pad in hand as I prepare to fracture the lead | D |
I resurrect art out the closed doors of dribbling sadistic writers | E |
- | |
I craft my ability on my weary body like a tatoo artist | F |
My eyes have been vexed by a violent history of unfruitful youth | G |
Washed my hands in a basin of history wrought by a dying people | H |
A descendant of the gods that were turned into slaves and brainwashed by a culture of a cursed civilisation | I |
A master architect and brother to the sphinx that I worshiped | J |
Till all went sour grapes and we were all shipped to a foreign land | K |
Of men who forced us to submission with whips that broke the bone and tore the flesh | L |
Let me write all the things that I know about brother Jesus | M |
Let me tell you the truth about how your governments create these diseases | N |
To control the population of a deceived people | H |
We are the free minority with the only power to cast away evil | H |
We are not living in equality | O |
And we confess a freedom that we don't really possess | P |
The masters of the slave trade can curse a clean hand that's ready to bless | P |
When the pen is in our bound hands | Q |
these chains can break | R |
and we can unlearn ourselves of the ills that are still done to our people | H |
Selah | H |
