On Rotation of MUST BEs 9

Look around and find your pants.
Run, looking around for your pants.

While running to look for your pants, summon your pants.

What a beautiful name had our pants.

Look inside the pits in case some pants have been lefe there

Maybe a shirt is hanging down by its corners off girders

Or edges of a pair of pants peeks out of pits.

Search all corners.

Run, rummage around,
call your shirts and pants with their first name –

Hey You, safe and sauntering pants!
Hey You, hanged down the girder, shirts!
