Difference Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFGF HHIIJJKKLML| My mind s a map A mad sea captain drew it | A |
| Under a flowing moon until he knew it | A |
| Winds with brass trumpets puffy cheeked as jugs | B |
| And states bright patterned like Arabian rugs | B |
| Here there be tygers Here we buried Jim | C |
| Here is the strait where eyeless fishes swim | C |
| About their buried idol drowned so cold | D |
| He weeps away his eyes in salt and gold | D |
| A country like the dark side of the moon | E |
| A cider apple country harsh and boon | E |
| A country savage as a chestnut rind | F |
| A land of hungry sorcerers | G |
| Your mind | F |

| - | |
| Your mind is water through an April night | H |
| A cherry branch plume feathery with its white | H |
| A lavender as fragrant as your words | I |
| A room where Peace and Honor talk like birds | I |
| Sewing bright coins upon the tragic cloth | J |
| Of heavy Fate and Mockery like a moth | J |
| Flutters and beats about those lovely things | K |
| You are the soul enchanted with its wings | K |
| The single voice that raises up the dead | L |
| To shake the pride of angels | M |
| I have said | L |
