Pavement Poet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAA BBB CDD EEFG| God's truth these be the bitter times | A |
| In vain I sing my sheaf of rhymes | A |
| And hold my battered hat for dimes | A |
| - | |
| And then a copper collars me | B |
| Barking It's begging that you be | B |
| Come on dad you're in custody | B |
| - | |
| And then the Beak looks down and says | C |
| Sheer doggerel I deem your lays | D |
| I send you down for seven days | D |
| - | |
| So for the week I won't disturb | E |
| The peace by singing at the curb | E |
| I don't mind that but oh it's hell | F |
| To have my verse called doggerel | G |
