Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHIJKDL MNOBPQ| My mind is shuffling its deck tonight | A |
| slipping one card over another | B |
| letting them all fall together at the corners | C |
| the random hand of memory | D |
| is dealing from the bottom of the pack | E |
| - | |
| First a bearded man emptying | F |
| the dragon kiln then a woman | G |
| whistling her face turned away | H |
| as she opens the oven Next | I |
| a big cat six toes on each paw | J |
| climbing up the yardpole Last | K |
| a pair of workhorses circling a tree | D |
| until they grind themselves to dust | L |
| - | |
| There is no one home in the world | M |
| tonight Everyone is out of range | N |
| The cradles are empty the boughs | O |
| broken down Trees go helter skelter | B |
| and the wheel is creaking on its shaft | P |
| Hit me I say to the dealer Hit me again | Q |
