Caged Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AB CD EF GH GE IJ KE| I'm now a sun bird leaning on the edge | A |
| Of the prison staircase weak and exhausted | B |
| - | |
| As i inhaled the slavery scent | C |
| My nose barricaded breathe breathe breathe | D |
| - | |
| I like a rainbow on the rainy sky | E |
| Bearing the colors of grief sad and regression | F |
| - | |
| I called upon the name of freedom | G |
| In a daydream slumbers and in nightmares | H |
| - | |
| The caged bird's words are as an empty drum | G |
| And like an air crossing the empty sky | E |
| - | |
| My voice became inaudible | I |
| As my mouth is buried in the sands of an abandoned land | J |
| - | |
| My hands were chained with metals | K |
| And my legs can't move to cross the fortresses why | E |
