Fever Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGBBEHIDelores 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 |
