Conscious Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHI| His fingers wake and flutter up the bed | A |
| His eyes come open with a pull of will | B |
| Helped by the yellow may flowers by his head | A |
| A blind cord drawls across the window sill | B |
| How smooth the floor of the ward is what a rug | C |
| And who's that talking somewhere out of sight | D |
| Why are they laughing What's inside that jug | C |
| Nurse Doctor Yes all right all right | D |
| - | |
| But sudden dusk bewilders all the air | E |
| There seems no time to want a drink of water | F |
| Nurse looks so far away And everywhere | E |
| Music and roses burnt through crimson slaughter | F |
| Cold cold he's cold and yet so hot | G |
| And there's no light to see the voices by | H |
| No time to dream and ask he knows not what | I |
