Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEFGHIAHJKLHHMNO H| Orange lichens in sun like clusters | A |
| entomb the Rockface wall | B |
| a sheer ascent from the waterline | C |
| into glassy viscous green | C |
| the plummet from skyward | D |
| to lake face | E |
| passes breathless squadrons | F |
| of Dragon Flies | G |
| devil's Darning Needles | H |
| threading the air | I |
| where Wolf Spiders | A |
| bivouac in web castles | H |
| thin Draculas to their insect host | J |
| each hairy mantle black | K |
| with burrow moats at high watermark | L |
| yet unforeseen are the funnel lairs | H |
| for bull snakes | H |
| each water thrasher | M |
| gracing the rotund behemoth Rock | N |
| lunging like a Spirit Presence up | O |
| from this watery chalice | H |
