Tank-top Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFFGHIGGJAA KHLMNJOJJPNQ RRMSTGU| I was playing sonatas on your skin | A |
| no beauty the beast scenario | B |
| though the Tower pulchritude was intact | C |
| with enough purple agape grape leaves | D |
| and ivy for a fig leaved Eve | E |
| with wind wet at the windows | F |
| and later the willows | F |
| where gravelly cloven hooves became party | G |
| to my thoughts for you | H |
| blessed with a triangular patch | I |
| and something like strawberry | G |
| lay moist woven into strict tapestry | G |
| like a mantle covering | J |
| abrupt oasis of skin | A |
| the better to peer in | A |
| - | |
| I scaled the heights | K |
| not castle vaults mind you | H |
| but the elevator shaft and draw bridge equivalent | L |
| of a white charger | M |
| fierce visor in place | N |
| armour gleaming | J |
| a sabre rattling at my side | O |
| be jewelled twinkling | J |
| the key clinking | J |
| there to corner distance | P |
| time space | N |
| dragons to be dirked and slain | Q |
| - | |
| Fiery eye forked tails | R |
| donut sized scales | R |
| plastered as a calendar | M |
| or shingler might a tiled roof | S |
| the empty spell | T |
| Bellerophon spying his Lady in a belfry | G |
| on driving home | U |
