Waking In Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDECF GHICJKCH| I can taste the tin of the sky the real tin thing | A |
| Winter dawn is the color of metal | B |
| The trees stiffen into place like burnt nerves | C |
| All night I have dreamed of destruction annihilations | C |
| An assembly line of cut throats and you and I | D |
| Inching off in the gray Chevrolet drinking the green | E |
| Poison of stilled lawns the little clapboard gravestones | C |
| Noiseless on rubber wheels on the way to the sea resort | F |
| - | |
| How the balconies echoed How the sun lit up | G |
| The skulls the unbuckled bones facing the view | H |
| Space Space The bed linen was giving out entirely | I |
| Cot legs melted in terrible attitudes and the nurses | C |
| Each nurse patched her soul to a wound and disappeared | J |
| The deathly guests had not been satisfied | K |
| With the rooms or the smiles or the beautiful rubber plants | C |
| Or the sea Hushing their peeled sense like Old Mother Morphia | H |
