Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFGHIJGGKLMN OP| If I when my wife is sleeping | A |

| dance naked grotesquely | G |
| before my mirror | H |
| waving my shirt round my head | I |

| I am best so | K |
| if I admire my arms my face | L |
| my shoulders flanks buttocks | M |
| against the yellow drawn shades | N |
| - | |
| who shall say I am not | O |
| the happy genius of my household | P |
