The Falling Is The Constant Mate Of Fear Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEFG HIJ KII

The falling is the constant mate of fearA
And feel of emptiness is the feel of frightB
Who throws us the stones from the heightB
And stones here refuse the dust to bearC
-
Once striding in a monk s unbending modeD
You pierced the yard from rim to other rimE
The cobble stones and the coarse dreamF
Have thirst for death and sadness of the broadG
-
Let Gothic shelter be in ruins turnedH
Where ceiling serves as a deceptive fableI
And in the heath the gaily logs don t burnJ
-
A few here for eternity were bornK
But if your mind has only instant labelI
Your lot is awful and your home unstableI
