| Waiting Charcoal grey cat | F |
| agreeably on a green linoleum table | G |
| with light basking in | H |
| a tad playful | G |
| paws up | I |
| classic boxer stance | J |
| but no one notices | K |
| Others oblique in their transparency | L |
| are unmindful of even the empty closet | M |
| and greeting cards that smile hello | N |
| - | |
| In the dark | O |
| this room shimmers below | N |
| life raft status | P |
| chairs are buoys | Q |
| bobbing under waves | R |
| of congealed fright | S |
| In the morning | T |
| the first pigeons | U |
| rifle over rooftops | V |
| mad flutterings like your eyes | W |
| stabbing gables looking curiously | L |
| like your heart | X |
| A tree bandaged in wood | Y |
| manages a feeble handshake | Z |
| with sky cajoling winter | A2 |
| - | |
| But it is the moon | B2 |
| large and eerie | L |
| a golden earring | T |
| mindful of a Chinese panda | C2 |
| that plies its trade | D2 |
| - | |
| Mandarin like a snout | E2 |
| so cloud entrenched | F2 |
| soft night barely resembles | G2 |
| willow and bamboo shoots | H2 |
| the universe left to feed her | A2 |
| - | |
| Nuggets or nougats | H2 |
| Should I call you opaque | Z |
| use coke bottle glass as a | C2 |
| symbol of light headedness transparency | H2 |
| Keen vision | I2 |
| Could it be more is known of outer space | H2 |
| than your mind | J2 |
| or that leaves | H2 |
| frosted with cold | K2 |
| are conducting interviews | H2 |
| maliciously within the park fold | K2 |
| - | |
| Rather and this is so circumspect | L2 |
| no one owes anyone | I2 |
| in the brisk coinage and trade | D2 |
| that breeds human waste | M2 |
| - | |
| So drivel passes as conversation | I2 |
| a handshake for real investment | N2 |
| A lot in common the wrong dreams | H2 |
| Pretty awareness the desolate pennies | H2 |
| stumble from our hands | H2 |
| - | |
| More substance really | H2 |
| in the rustle of a silk dress | H2 |
| or static electricity | H2 |
| that pops over orb sized breasts | H2 |
| Hide and seek | O2 |
| peek a boo | P2 |
| you don't need me | H2 |
| I don't need you | P2 |
