1. Bird House Girl // Lumos Plaza
She sits, shoes untied; staring, hollow inside; A mobile home she may be; how many avian friends do we see?

15. Octo-Paint-Us // Lumos Plaza
Cephalopods making art you’ll see; a mini-theme in this tour to some degree; Empty walls they beautify; Here, how many bubbles bob by?

16. After // 440 N Commerce Ave // E-N Computers
In shades of monochrome, a lady lies, gaze fixed ahead with quiet eyes. On the wall, a corporate grace, guess the name, it’s a visual embrace.
17. Octopus // 440 N Commerce Ave // E-N Computers
Beneath the city’s colorful sprawl, a purple cephalopod, spray cans in thrall. In his eight tentacles, a vibrant array, count the cans he wields, in the urban ballet.
18. The Chase // 430 N Commerce Ave
In a mural so grand, with colors that gleam, Tom and Jerry run, in a cartoonish dream. Count the eyes in the tree, where mischief may hide, how many peep out, on this colorful ride?
19. Luchbrador // 1010 E Main St // Basic City Beer Co.
In colors bold, a dog appears, masked wrestler, shedding playful cheers. Yellow, red, and purple unite, beside some small friends catch the light. Look closely, take a peep, adjacent companions, the answer is sweet.
20. Isabelle // 1010 E Main St // The Foundry
In hues of noir, a woman’s allure. A bloom of yellow, a mystery to explore. Adjacent to flavors, where dishes shine, a restaurant named what, quite divine.
