Delight and Disorder

The broken rhyme scheme of this poem contributes to the theme of disorder. The phrase "wild civility" is an oxymoron. The poem is talking about how imperfections and inconsistencies are not always a bad thing. It reminds me of Shakespeare and how he was accepting of the imperfections of his "mistress" as well. The theme of beauty in imperfection is common amoung poets. The speaker prefers disorder to preciseness in a woman. The rhyme scheme can be compared to his type of woman because it is not perfect, it's a little off. It makes him happy to see flaws in the things he loves.
