Return of the rhyme scheme

Posted on May 29 2012

I generally write far more free verse poetry but I still like to dabble in rhyme schemes.  Check out this little number:

ENIGMA

 

One day closer to death

To retirement of need

Found angel’s gilded breath

Ten million as they feed

 

Spilling abject motion

Against the placid wall

Coursing through black ocean

Awaiting captain’s call

 

Sire lend me your siren

Remove your broken ear

Learn me like a hymen—

A virgin to my fear

 

Searching for something lost

Enthusiasm’s ghost

A black sea holocaust

Eliminates the host
