Pillage Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEF GHHIJKL MN OPQR STUCVUW XYZA2B2YC2ZY| It's chess of sorts but | A |
| reeks of you | B |
| the hand carved emerald rook for one | C |
| and so many Black White squares | D |
| that tiptoe like many a patio stone | E |
| between our warring minds | F |
| - | |
| I think of rollaway mats | G |
| lepers use to beg on | H |
| habitually to die on | H |
| or marked cards that | I |
| outside castle walls | J |
| dicers' oaths | K |
| must originate from | L |
| - | |
| I am having trouble | M |
| keeping the pieces straight | N |
| - | |
| I mean you're White | O |
| concluded the beginning of the end | P |
| with first move still I'm prepared | Q |
| for nothing short of winning | R |
| - | |
| Should we discuss this | S |
| growing stalemate near | T |
| the Bishop's mitre | U |
| and exploding gun | C |
| or against hungry faces of expendable pawns | V |
| raging as they say across Seas of Galilee | U |
| on that first night of Storms | W |
| - | |
| And when pressed during attack | X |
| is it proper logistics | Y |
| to prepare the drawbridge | Z |
| fondle another dart | A2 |
| for a King's crossbow | B2 |
| then advance at parapets | Y |
| with scalding liquid | C2 |
| the oily spillage | Z |
| of our tongues | Y |
