These Yet To Be United States Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHEH EIJI CKJL MNON

Tremors of your networkA
cause kings to disappearB
Your open mouth in angerC
makes nations bow in fearB
-
Your bombs can change the seasonsD
obliterate the springE
What more do you long forF
Why are you sufferingE
-
You control the human livesG
in Rome and TimbuktuH
Lonely nomads wanderingE
owe Telstar to youH
-
Seas shift at your biddingE
your mushrooms fill the skyI
Why are you unhappyJ
Why do your children cryI
-
They kneel alone in terrorC
with dread in every glanceK
Their nights 'rights' Schrift nicht lesbar are threatened dailyJ
by a grim inheritanceL
-
You dwell in whitened castlesM
with deep and poisoned moatsN
and cannot hear the cursesO
which fill your children's throatsN
