Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEDFGDHDIJK| Inside a cave in a narrow canyon near Tassajara | A |
| The vault of rock is painted with hands | B |
| A multitude of hands in the twilight a cloud of men's palms no | C |
| more | A |
| No other picture There's no one to say | D |
| Whether the brown shy quiet people who are dead intended | E |
| Religion or magic or made their tracings | D |
| In the idleness of art but over the division of years these careful | F |
| Signs manual are now like a sealed message | G |
| Saying 'Look we also were human we had hands not paws | D |
| All hail | H |
| You people with the cleverer hands our supplanters | D |
| In the beautiful country enjoy her a season her beauty and | I |
| come down | J |
| And be supplanted for you also are human ' | K |
