Wasp Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AB| When the honey fruit and flowery tablecloth were whisked from the table in one sweep it flew off with a start Entangled in the suffocating smoke of the curtains it buzzed for a long time At last it reached the window It beat its weakening body repeatedly against the cold solid air of the pane In the last flutter of its wings drowsed the faith that the body s unrest can awaken a wind carrying us to longed for worlds | A |
| You who stood under the window of your beloved who saw your happiness in a shop window do you know how to take away the sting of this death | B |
