Burning The Book Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJDKLMNO| The anthology of love poems I bought | A |
| for a quarter is brittle anyway and comes | B |
| apart when I read it | C |
| One at a time I throw pages on the fire | D |
| and watch smoke make its way up | E |
| and out | F |
| I'm almost to the index when I hear | G |
| a murmuring in the street My neighbors | H |
| are watching it snow | I |
| I put on my blue jacket and join them | J |
| We like each other and push each other | D |
| away | K |
| The children stand with their mouths | L |
| open | M |
| I can see nouns longing rapture bliss | N |
| land on every tongue then disappear | O |
