The Prairie-grass Dividing Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEAFGHIJKL

THE prairie grass dividing its special odor breathingA
I demand of it the spiritual correspondingA
Demand the most copious and close companionship of menB
Demand the blades to rise of words acts beingsC
Those of the open atmosphere coarse sunlit fresh nutritiousD
Those that go their own gait erect stepping with freedom andE
command leading not followingA
Those with a never quell'd audacity those with sweet and lustyF
flesh clear of taintG
Those that look carelessly in the faces of Presidents and GovernorsH
as to say Who are youI
Those of earth born passion simple never constrain'd neverJ
obedientK
Those of inland AmericaL
