Rhyme Scheme: A B C DEFGHIJKLMN| JAGUAR | A |
| - | |
| Nasal intonations of light and clicking tongues publicity of windows stoning me with pent up cries smells of abattoirs smells of long dead meat | B |
| - | |
| Some day end while the sand is yet cozy as a blanket off the warm body of a squaw and the jaguars are out to kill with a blue black night coming on and a painted cloud stalking the first star I shall go alone into the Silence the coiled Silence where a cry can run only a little way and waver and dwindle and be lost | C |
| - | |
| And there | D |
| where tiny antlers clinch and strain | E |
| as life grapples in a million avid points | F |
| and threshing things | G |
| strike and die | H |
| letting their hate live on | I |
| in the spreading purple of a wound | J |
| I too | K |
| will make covert of a crevice in the night | L |
| and turn and watch | M |
| nose at the cleft's edge | N |
