First floor:
Here live the blind
Who believe what they see
And the deaf
Who believe what they hear
Bound and gagged to a kitchen-stool
Sits a fool, who believes
In all he can feel
(His hands in his lap)
Second floor:
Roll after roll
Length after length
In wood chip wallpaper
Lone tenants stand around
Observing the walls with frowns
Looking for printing and spelling mistakes
They couldn't even decipher their own names
Up to the next floor!
Which, oh wonder! Never completed
Can only be reached by the stairs

Here are stored errors
Which belong to the firm
And with which they tile the floors
Upon these none may tread
