Fever Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGBBEHI| Delores Del Rio takes a walking tour | A |
| of my body Unlike most vagabonds | B |
| in sturdy boots and a stained rucksack | C |
| Delores wears a red dress and slingbacks | B |
| She hums the arsonist's theme | D |
| as she taps one coy organ after another | E |
| and makes them tawdry with flame | F |
| When she gets a little tired | G |
| she sits on my spleen and smokes | B |
| If she glanced up she'd see | B |
| two aspirin careening toward her | E |
| like the lights of a very small car | H |
| destined to disappear in a fiery crash | I |
