A Dead Boche Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCD EFEFGH| To you who'd read my songs of War | A |
| And only hear of blood and fame | B |
| I'll say you've heard it said before | A |
| War's Hell and if you doubt the same | B |
| Today I found in Mametz Wood | C |
| A certain cure for lust of blood | D |
| - | |
| Where propped against a shattered trunk | E |
| In a great mess of things unclean | F |
| Sat a dead Boche he scowled and stunk | E |
| With clothes and face a sodden green | F |
| Big bellied spectacled crop haired | G |
| Dribbling black blood from nose and beard | H |
