Vermilion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFAGHIJKADAL| Pierre Bonnard would enter | A |
| the museum with a tube of paint | B |
| in his pocket and a sable brush | C |
| Then violating the sanctity | D |
| of one of his own frames | E |
| he'd add a stroke of vermilion | F |
| to the skin of a flower | A |
| Just so I stopped you | G |
| at the door this morning | H |
| and licking my index finger removed | I |
| an invisible crumb | J |
| from your vermilion mouth As if | K |
| at the ritual moment of departure | A |
| I had to show you still belonged to me | D |
| As if revision were | A |
| the purest form of love | L |
