00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.460 align:middle line:90%


00:00:02.460 --> 00:00:10.010 align:middle line:84%
My friend and I are in
love with the same woman.

00:00:10.010 --> 00:00:16.070 align:middle line:84%
He speaks one language with
her, and I speak another.

00:00:16.070 --> 00:00:23.260 align:middle line:84%
She loves what's different
about us and what's the same.

00:00:23.260 --> 00:00:27.700 align:middle line:90%
He was born so he will die.

00:00:27.700 --> 00:00:29.590 align:middle line:90%
I was born.

00:00:29.590 --> 00:00:32.630 align:middle line:90%
I, too, will die.

00:00:32.630 --> 00:00:38.690 align:middle line:84%
That makes us members of
the hungry and the thirsty.

00:00:38.690 --> 00:00:42.890 align:middle line:90%
She requires our hunger.

00:00:42.890 --> 00:00:45.830 align:middle line:90%
Orphaned, she calls it.

00:00:45.830 --> 00:00:52.880 align:middle line:84%
She insists on our thirst,
sprung from death's deathless

00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:56.880 align:middle line:90%
fountain, she says.

00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:01.680 align:middle line:84%
Sometimes, when she's
lying between us,

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:08.460 align:middle line:84%
I watch amazed as his
fingers turn her entirely

00:01:08.460 --> 00:01:15.410 align:middle line:84%
into a body of glistening
sobs and joyful tremors.

00:01:15.410 --> 00:01:20.870 align:middle line:84%
And then I vow to give the
rest of my life to know her

00:01:20.870 --> 00:01:25.420 align:middle line:90%
as deeply as he knows her.

00:01:25.420 --> 00:01:30.880 align:middle line:84%
Once, a troubled voice
only I sometimes hear

00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:36.610 align:middle line:84%
asked, do you really mean
the rest of your life?

00:01:36.610 --> 00:01:41.860 align:middle line:84%
Can you begin a new kind
of love at your age?

00:01:41.860 --> 00:01:44.820 align:middle line:90%
What will people think?

00:01:44.820 --> 00:01:51.510 align:middle line:84%
And as if reading my mind,
she turned toward me and said,

00:01:51.510 --> 00:01:55.890 align:middle line:84%
anyone who questions
himself at such a moment

00:01:55.890 --> 00:01:56.925 align:middle line:90%
doesn't belong here.

00:01:56.925 --> 00:01:59.760 align:middle line:90%


00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:06.030 align:middle line:84%
My friend and I are in
love with the same woman.

00:02:06.030 --> 00:02:09.120 align:middle line:90%
That makes us brothers.

00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:13.520 align:middle line:90%
Our love for her is a secret.

00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:18.040 align:middle line:84%
That makes us
brothers twice over.

00:02:18.040 --> 00:02:25.480 align:middle line:84%
She's in love with each of us
alone and both of us together.

00:02:25.480 --> 00:02:27.940 align:middle line:90%
What's that make us?

00:02:27.940 --> 00:02:36.130 align:middle line:84%
Wings of one bird opposite
terminals to her luminous arc.

00:02:36.130 --> 00:02:41.080 align:middle line:84%
Upper and lower
hemispheres of her circle.

00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:44.560 align:middle line:90%
The pick in front of her.

00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.110 align:middle line:90%
Sun and moon of her.

00:02:47.110 --> 00:02:49.660 align:middle line:90%
Silver and glass of her.

00:02:49.660 --> 00:02:54.740 align:middle line:90%
Sun side and moss side of her.

00:02:54.740 --> 00:03:01.920 align:middle line:90%
Yes, yes, yes, yes, oh, yes.

00:03:01.920 --> 00:03:03.000 align:middle line:90%
