I lost the blue
           marble      watched
           it warble under

The stairs       Furniture:
           modern     orange
           and steel

I thought about the living
           room   sun
           a breath    there

In the kitchen
           mirror in the hall
           "I'm going to write

A bestseller," I said
           a breath            there
           in the kitchen

"Dedicated to ewe,"
           he       he thought
           above a field

Field of sheep              there
           a breath there
           in the kitchen.
