The Minimal Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEEEEEFFI study the lives on a leaf the little | A |
Sleepers numb nudgers in cold dimensions | B |
Beetles in caves newts stone deaf fishes | C |
Lice tethered to long limp subterranean weeds | D |
Squirmers in bogs | E |
And bacterial creepers | E |
Wriggling through wounds | E |
Like elvers in ponds | E |
Their wan mouths kissing the warm sutures | E |
Cleaning and caressing | F |
Creeping and healing | F |
