The Woman Works works poem 

gives a perfect example for a catalog

poem by saying what the person is 

doing in a long list.

So this line explains that a bridge with the reflection of water looks like an eye.

"Dogs go by, barking on their backs" Water PIcture

The dogs are seen as being on their backs from the water reflection barking.

On a starry winter night in Portugal

Where the ocean kissed the southern shore

There a dream I never thought would come to pass

Came and went like time spent through an hourglass

-Teena Marie, “Portuguese Love”

She wears a long fur coat of mink

Even in the summertime

Everybody knows from the coy little wink

The girl's got a lot on her mind

She's got big thoughts, big dreams

And a big brown Mercedes sedan

What I think this girl, she really wants

Is to be in love with a man

-Sheila E., “Glamorous Life”
