The Hustle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCCCCDDEEFGGHHIJK GGGLM| We started from the street | A |
| Climbed mountains high to the peak | B |
| We look around before we speak | B |
| In all greener pastures we seek | B |
| The suffering and the pain | C |
| The little that we can maintain | C |
| We split our wealth to sustain | C |
| Though not enough we gain | C |
| We work hard but we achieve brief | D |
| We strive to find someone to share our grief | D |
| Sometimes very deep we need to creep | E |
| Who is on the watch We stood to peep | E |
| And then the next | F |
| A bucket full of sweat | G |
| As they hawk and prevent the threat | G |
| From disfigured places we woke up in the morning | H |
| Even till now we keep yawning | H |
| Uncomfortable sleep we had | I |
| Yet still stood up to work hard | J |
| And here we are trying to put pennies in the pocket | K |
| It has been like this right from the onset | G |
| We retire late after sunset | G |
| And wait on the crow of the cock for another set | G |
| We move on not knowing where we are headed | L |
| Yet we keep hoping for brighter days ahead | M |
