Pain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGDHIIAA JJ| Find me out a fortress find | A |
| Such a mind within the mind | A |
| As can gather to its source | B |
| All of life's inveterate force | B |
| Find the hard and secret cell | C |
| In my body's citadel | C |
| Iron ribbed from suck and drain | D |
| Of the clutching monster Pain | D |
| Pain the formless alien will | E |
| That seeks me out that strives to drill | E |
| Through shielding thought and barricade | F |
| Of all the strength my will has made | F |
| That singles me and searches through | G |
| The sharp sense I am narrowed to | G |
| And ever as the bond I strain | D |
| Thrusts me home to flesh again | H |
| Estranging me from earth to be | I |
| One fierce throb of identity | I |
| Yet there's fibre in the mind | A |
| I shall find I shall find | A |
| To resist and to defy | J |
| All the world that is not I | J |
