So I'll read one more
of these and then

00:00:03.210 --> 00:00:07.050 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to finish with some
poems from The Book of Frank.

00:00:07.050 --> 00:00:08.715 align:middle line:90%
So this is a poem that--

00:00:08.715 --> 00:00:13.200 align:middle line:90%


00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:13.700 align:middle line:90%
OK.

00:00:13.700 --> 00:00:14.870 align:middle line:90%
Here it is.

00:00:14.870 --> 00:00:18.020 align:middle line:84%
The title is, "Wondering
About our Demise

00:00:18.020 --> 00:00:20.330 align:middle line:84%
While Driving to
Disneyland with Abandon."

00:00:20.330 --> 00:00:23.390 align:middle line:90%


00:00:23.390 --> 00:00:25.850 align:middle line:84%
"Don't be afraid of
all we have pending.

00:00:25.850 --> 00:00:28.820 align:middle line:84%
Plasma I sold in
Albuquerque broke even

00:00:28.820 --> 00:00:32.090 align:middle line:84%
with food I purchased
to produce it.

00:00:32.090 --> 00:00:34.320 align:middle line:90%
We can manage.

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:36.830 align:middle line:84%
We can start under
this tree a quiet hour

00:00:36.830 --> 00:00:38.660 align:middle line:90%
of dozing into the bark.

00:00:38.660 --> 00:00:40.760 align:middle line:90%
We'll reveal the step forward.

00:00:40.760 --> 00:00:43.430 align:middle line:84%
Things thinking
about one another.

00:00:43.430 --> 00:00:46.820 align:middle line:84%
This crystal and feather asked
me to bring them together.

00:00:46.820 --> 00:00:48.530 align:middle line:90%
Put them behind the books.

00:00:48.530 --> 00:00:50.730 align:middle line:84%
They want a private
conversation.

00:00:50.730 --> 00:00:54.320 align:middle line:84%
And that means me getting lost
to fellowship with grass, soil,

00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:57.440 align:middle line:90%
and little stones.

00:00:57.440 --> 00:01:01.190 align:middle line:84%
They tell me there
is no clear sense

00:01:01.190 --> 00:01:04.040 align:middle line:90%
of when we leave this world.

00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:06.810 align:middle line:84%
An owl drops a mouse
in front of me.

00:01:06.810 --> 00:01:08.510 align:middle line:84%
It doesn't have
to mean something,

00:01:08.510 --> 00:01:11.400 align:middle line:90%
but it probably does.

00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:14.610 align:middle line:84%
Help fishing a glass eye
out of a garbage disposal

00:01:14.610 --> 00:01:17.670 align:middle line:84%
was my favorite
time helping anyone.

00:01:17.670 --> 00:01:20.670 align:middle line:84%
He was so happy pushing
it back into his head.

00:01:20.670 --> 00:01:22.710 align:middle line:84%
Shaking my hand
at the same time,

00:01:22.710 --> 00:01:26.280 align:middle line:84%
we both wished he wasn't
my boyfriend's brother.

00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.130 align:middle line:90%
