00:00:00.900 --> 00:00:04.019 align:middle line:90%
Sorry, I keep losing it.

00:00:04.019 --> 00:00:05.880 align:middle line:84%
One of the things I
like so much about him

00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:07.830 align:middle line:90%
is that he's very generous.

00:00:07.830 --> 00:00:12.990 align:middle line:90%
He's also extremely irreverent.

00:00:12.990 --> 00:00:14.845 align:middle line:84%
This is a poem called
"The Nefelegeretes"

00:00:14.845 --> 00:00:16.470 align:middle line:84%
which is a word that
he made up, and it

00:00:16.470 --> 00:00:18.870 align:middle line:84%
means he hangs out
with the clouds,

00:00:18.870 --> 00:00:23.660 align:middle line:84%
and also he chases around
the hems of the clouds.

00:00:23.660 --> 00:00:27.060 align:middle line:84%
Oh how beautiful to hang
out with the clouds,

00:00:27.060 --> 00:00:31.050 align:middle line:84%
to write like Homer epics
and old shoes, to not

00:00:31.050 --> 00:00:33.630 align:middle line:90%
care if you liked or not.

00:00:33.630 --> 00:00:35.550 align:middle line:90%
Nothing.

00:00:35.550 --> 00:00:40.110 align:middle line:84%
Free of distraction, to
reap unpopularity like this,

00:00:40.110 --> 00:00:42.120 align:middle line:90%
with generosity.

00:00:42.120 --> 00:00:44.550 align:middle line:84%
As if you owned a
mint and shut it,

00:00:44.550 --> 00:00:47.490 align:middle line:84%
fired all personnel
to keep a poverty

00:00:47.490 --> 00:00:52.410 align:middle line:84%
had by no other
completely yours.

00:00:52.410 --> 00:00:54.960 align:middle line:84%
At the hour when at their
bureaus without hope,

00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:58.110 align:middle line:84%
hanging by phones they fight
for nothing but fat people.

00:00:58.110 --> 00:01:00.690 align:middle line:90%
You go up inside Eros.

00:01:00.690 --> 00:01:05.099 align:middle line:84%
Totally smudged but
limber, a chimney sweep.

00:01:05.099 --> 00:01:09.750 align:middle line:84%
You come down from Eros ready
to found your own white beach.

00:01:09.750 --> 00:01:14.460 align:middle line:84%
Without money, you undress as
they who know of love undress,

00:01:14.460 --> 00:01:19.110 align:middle line:84%
and with large leagues open
yourself freely to cry.

00:01:19.110 --> 00:01:23.720 align:middle line:84%
It is bigamy to
love and to dream.

00:01:23.720 --> 00:01:25.000 align:middle line:90%
