Dead Cow Farm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFGGAn ancient saga tells us how | A |
In the beginning the First Cow | A |
For nothing living yet had birth | B |
But Elemental Cow on earth | B |
Began to lick cold stones and mud | C |
Under her warm tongue flesh and blood | C |
Blossomed a miracle to believe | D |
And so was Adam born and Eve | D |
Here now is chaos once again | E |
Primeval mud cold stones and rain | F |
Here flesh decays and blood drips red | G |
And the Cow's dead the old Cow's dead | G |
