| 8 | The self is a serengeti \ | ||
| 9 | a wide grassland with baobab trees \ | ||
| 10 | reaching their roots deep into earth \ | ||
| 11 | like a child into a clay pot \ | ||
| 12 | A wind blows there or seems to blow \ | ||
| 13 | if he holds it up to his ear the air shifts \ | ||
| 14 | like stones in a stream uncovering a crawfish \ | ||
| 15 | it finds another hiding place watching you \ | ||
| 16 | Its eyes are blacker than wind \ | ||
| 17 | on the serengeti they are the [eyes of a predator][formal] \ | ||
| 18 | they are coming toward you or receding \ | ||
| 19 | a storm cloud builds on the horizon \ | ||
| 20 | Are you [running][] toward the rain or away from it \ | ||
| 21 | Do you stand still and crouch hoping for silence | ||
