Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCEFGHIJKFLMNJ

As I perceiveA
I am dying now and knowB
I will not speak again will notC
survive the earth be summonedD
out of it again notC
a flower yet a spine only raw dirtE
catching my ribs I call youF
father and master all aroundG
my companions are failing thinkingH
you do not see HowI
can they know you seeJ
unless you save usK
In the summer twilight are youF
close enough to hearL
your child's terror OrM
are you not my fatherN
you who raised meJ
