The Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKG G IILGMNGG| That day in the slipping of torsos and straining flanks | A |
| on the bloodied ooze of fields plowed by the iron | B |
| And the smoke bluish near earth and bronze in the sunshine | C |
| floating like cotton down | D |
| And the harsh and terrible screaming | E |
| And that strange vibration at the roots of us | F |
| Desire fierce like a song | G |
| And we heard | H |
| Do you remember | I |
| All the Red Cross bands on Fifth avenue | J |
| And bugles in little home towns | K |
| And children's harmonicas bleating | G |
| - | |
| America | G |
| - | |
| And after | I |
| Do you remember | I |
| The drollery of the wind on our faces | L |
| And horizons reeling | G |
| And the terror of the plain | M |
| Heaving like a gaunt pelvis to the sun | N |
| Under us threshing and twanging | G |
| Torn up roots of the Song | G |
