Waking –
To the caterwaul you are
Pulled from bed by strings into
Another unanswered question to your life
A plangent street calls out to see

Ambling –
To the window, through it, see
Esoteric motions bring you quailing
Embrace the shadowless sky
She sends out her greyest love

Turning –
You see the mirror; the street, the sea
Shake this house on the cliff
Look, look at the mirror, see! a face,
Of someone who died many years ago
Thank-you, Dog-Faced Man, where ever you are now

Wow, this is great. It's nice to see words I don't know, and a reference to death that doesn't refer to the author's own demise. Who is this "dog-faced man" though? Tasty words you've got here.
