Melody Of Fools Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDE FGBHBI AJKLMN

When we kill the youths in the streets of yesterday foolishnessA
The common man dreams of a great futureB
From a today wasted in mediocrityC
That which would have killed the minorities is now a pandemic amongst the majorityC
COVID the dread that have shaken the powerfulD
Where are the nationalist in all thisE
-
Take my hand up the hills into the tree lineF
In the thin air I want to stand for a few momentsG
Stand there atop the turbulent today and peer into the futureB
The valley yonder is blurred the horizon I see notH
From where I come fools are incessant in their hope for betterB
The valley covered in cinder and ash of yesterday ravished by greedI
-
Lead me across the river of rights consciousnessA
I see flash floods of wasted years etched on the dry riverbedJ
Skeleton like trees lining the bank on the other sideK
It is all that we have bequeathed our posterity withL
Dry morals dry self worth the only now syndromeM
The melody the dance and the destruction of foolsN
