In Prison Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDABE DFFGDGD EBEB

Wearily drearilyA
Half the day longB
Flap the great bannersC
High over the stoneD
Strangely and eerilyA
Sounds the wind's songB
Bending the banner polesE
-
While all aloneD
Watching the loophole's sparkF
Lie I with life all darkF
Feet tether'd hands fetter'dG
Fast to the stoneD
The grim walls square letter'dG
With prison'd men's groanD
-
Still strain the banner polesE
Through the wind's songB
Westward the banner rollsE
Over my wrongB
