Bloodcount Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BC DEFGHI JKAJLMN JOA JP| My mind had almost died | A |
| - | |
| It had refused a game of tag on a common | B |
| with surly children and they steadfastly took revenge | C |
| - | |
| My fate like Blondin's walk across Niagara | D |
| saw cataracts looming large | E |
| hiss foam | F |
| then visions of serpents | G |
| farawy monsters | H |
| inner tension of rocks opening | I |
| - | |
| The churned brown water opened like a basket before me | J |
| Maurading bubbles took on elephantine shapes | K |
| my barrel creeked | A |
| Faraway the edge drop yawned in indifferent harmony | J |
| The brown walls of my fortress barrel became like palates | L |
| sutures of my skull imprisoning the brain | M |
| the trickle of invading water ever a reminder | N |
| - | |
| The close of the story | J |
| Nothing What is there to record after a river passes | O |
| What remains of things unseen of antelopes in flight | A |
| - | |
| The shroud of Monte Cristo tossed carelessly into sea | J |
| did not fall open to the touch but was knifed with rifle force | P |
