Analysis of To Bind Us Evermore
A Rhyme to end
Each chosen line
Conjoined to those
Before
Each couplet
Like a stair step
Each stanza
Something more
The sound that’s made
Betrothes at once
All foreign and
Obscure
The glue within
Our spoken word
To bind us
Evermore
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2016)
