Midnight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDEFGHIJKLIMNOLPI JK

Speak to me aching heart whatA
Ridiculous errand are you inventing for yourselfB
Weeping in the dark garageC
With your sack of garbage it is not your jobD
To take out the garbage it is your jobD
To empty the dishwasher You are showing offE
AgainF
Exactly as you did in childhood whereG
Is your sporting side your famousH
Ironic detachment A little moonlight hitsI
The broken window a little summer moonlightJ
TenderK
Murmurs from the earth with its readyL
SweetnessesI
Is this the way you communicateM
With your husband not answeringN
When he calls or is this the way the heartO
Behaves when it grieves it wants to beL
Alone with the garbage If I were youP
I'd think ahead After fifteen yearsI
His voice could be getting tired some nightJ
If you don't answer someone else will answerK
