I Want, I Want Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EBFG HIJK

Open mouthed the baby godA
Immense bald though baby headedB
Cried out for the mother's dugC
The dry volcanoes cracked and splitD
-
Sand abraded the milkless lipE
Cried then for the father's bloodB
Who set wasp wolf and shark to workF
Engineered the gannet's beakG
-
Dry eyed the inveterate patriarchH
Raised his men of skin and boneI
Barbs on the crown of gilded wireJ
Thorns on the bloody rose stemK
