00:00:01.770 --> 00:00:06.660 align:middle line:84%
This is an even older poem
that I was asked to read

00:00:06.660 --> 00:00:10.807 align:middle line:90%
and it's called Dog Dreaming.

00:00:10.807 --> 00:00:15.380 align:middle line:90%


00:00:15.380 --> 00:00:18.530 align:middle line:84%
"The paws twitch in
a place of chasing.

00:00:18.530 --> 00:00:21.110 align:middle line:84%
Where the whimper of this
seeming gentle creature

00:00:21.110 --> 00:00:25.100 align:middle line:84%
rings out terrible,
chasing Tigers.

00:00:25.100 --> 00:00:27.080 align:middle line:84%
The fields are
licking like torches

00:00:27.080 --> 00:00:32.390 align:middle line:84%
full of running laced odors,
bones stalking, tushed leaps.

00:00:32.390 --> 00:00:35.240 align:middle line:84%
So little that is
tamed, yet so much

00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:38.870 align:middle line:84%
that you would find
deeply familiar there.

00:00:38.870 --> 00:00:40.610 align:middle line:90%
You are there often.

00:00:40.610 --> 00:00:42.200 align:middle line:90%
Your very eyes.

00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:45.290 align:middle line:84%
The unfathomable knowledge
behind your face.

00:00:45.290 --> 00:00:48.620 align:middle line:84%
The mystery of your will
appraising such carnage

00:00:48.620 --> 00:00:50.030 align:middle line:90%
and triumph.

00:00:50.030 --> 00:00:54.320 align:middle line:84%
Standing there strange even
to yourself, and loved,

00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:58.960 align:middle line:84%
and only a sleeping
beast knows who you are."
