The Epic Stars Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBFG

The heroic stars spending themselvesA
Coining their very flesh into bullets for the lost battleB
They must burn out at length like used candlesC
And Mother Night will weep in her triumph taking home her heroesD
There is the stuff for an epic poemE
This magnificent raid at the heart of darkness this lost battleB
We don't know enough we'll never knowF
Oh happy Homer taking the stars and the Gods for grantedG
