Lost things accumulated:
His body, hair,
All his fingernails,
Thirty-four teeth,
two of them made of plastic,
His clothes, shoes, socks,
A gold lion belt,
His voice,
Including his snores,
His gasps upstairs,
All his loves,
His shameless cruelties,
His gentleness and tenderness,
His incurable disease.
All things he got accumulated:
A woman's shouting,
Two drops of tears,
A heap of smoke,
Numberless red, teary eyes,
A night's mahjong sound,
Another man's accidental smile,
An old woman' s heartfelt sigh,
A full room of flower baskets,
A blue and white porcelain urn,
It was round, oblong or gourd-shaped.
