Dolphin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGEHIJKCL M| My Dolphin you only guide me by surprise | A |
| a captive as Racine the man of craft | B |
| drawn through his maze of iron composition | C |
| by the incomparable wandering voice of Ph dre | D |
| When I was troubled in mind you made for my body | E |
| caught in its hangman's knot of sinking lines | F |
| the glassy bowing and scraping of my will | G |
| I have sat and listened to too many | E |
| words of the collaborating muse | H |
| and plotted perhaps too freely with my life | I |
| not avoiding injury to others | J |
| not avoiding injury to myself | K |
| to ask compassion this book half fiction | C |
| an eelnet made by man for the eel fighting | L |
| - | |
| my eyes have seen what my hand did | M |
