00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.630 align:middle line:90%


00:00:00.630 --> 00:00:02.550 align:middle line:84%
This poem is a
contrapuntal, which

00:00:02.550 --> 00:00:04.920 align:middle line:84%
means you can read it
three different ways.

00:00:04.920 --> 00:00:07.710 align:middle line:84%
Once down the left column,
once down the right,

00:00:07.710 --> 00:00:08.730 align:middle line:90%
and then as a whole.

00:00:08.730 --> 00:00:12.280 align:middle line:90%


00:00:12.280 --> 00:00:14.880 align:middle line:90%
So I'm going to try to do that.

00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:16.810 align:middle line:90%
Let's see how it works.

00:00:16.810 --> 00:00:20.490 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to go left,
yeah, I think left, right,

00:00:20.490 --> 00:00:21.310 align:middle line:90%
and then whole.

00:00:21.310 --> 00:00:21.810 align:middle line:90%
No.

00:00:21.810 --> 00:00:24.210 align:middle line:90%
Left, whole, and then right.

00:00:24.210 --> 00:00:26.400 align:middle line:90%
That's I think I would do.

00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:30.070 align:middle line:84%
"Contrapuntal for
Good Behavior."

00:00:30.070 --> 00:00:31.920 align:middle line:90%
This is the left column.

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:37.405 align:middle line:84%
How good, how good, how good,
how good, how good, how good,

00:00:37.405 --> 00:00:40.200 align:middle line:84%
how good, what's
good, what's good?

00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.240 align:middle line:90%


00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:49.030 align:middle line:84%
How good can you be inside
a cocked pressure cooker?

00:00:49.030 --> 00:00:55.240 align:middle line:84%
How good do you need to be
to be considered an animal?

00:00:55.240 --> 00:01:00.130 align:middle line:84%
How good do you need to grease
the greedy ethereal wheel?

00:01:00.130 --> 00:01:02.350 align:middle line:90%
How good do you love her?

00:01:02.350 --> 00:01:03.580 align:middle line:90%
Do you love him?

00:01:03.580 --> 00:01:06.820 align:middle line:90%
This, how good is your skin?

00:01:06.820 --> 00:01:08.920 align:middle line:90%
Your blood, does it look right?

00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:12.790 align:middle line:84%
How good is your personal
air when someone doesn't ask?

00:01:12.790 --> 00:01:15.520 align:middle line:90%
How good are you well-behaved?

00:01:15.520 --> 00:01:16.270 align:middle line:90%
Quiet.

00:01:16.270 --> 00:01:17.500 align:middle line:90%
Keep your head down.

00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:19.210 align:middle line:90%
Asks what's good?

00:01:19.210 --> 00:01:21.850 align:middle line:90%
instead if you are OK.

00:01:21.850 --> 00:01:23.050 align:middle line:90%
How are you?

00:01:23.050 --> 00:01:24.430 align:middle line:90%
Are you alive?

00:01:24.430 --> 00:01:28.330 align:middle line:84%
What's good in your heart,
in your blue cage where

00:01:28.330 --> 00:01:31.270 align:middle line:90%
nothing caged is allowed?

00:01:31.270 --> 00:01:34.360 align:middle line:90%
And then the right side.

00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:38.380 align:middle line:84%
Can you be inside a
cocked pressure cooker?

00:01:38.380 --> 00:01:42.370 align:middle line:84%
Do you need to be
considered an animal?

00:01:42.370 --> 00:01:46.120 align:middle line:84%
Do you need to grease the
greedy ethereal wheel?

00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:47.440 align:middle line:90%
Do you love her?

00:01:47.440 --> 00:01:49.120 align:middle line:90%
Do you love him?

00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.380 align:middle line:84%
This, is your skin, your
blood, does it look right?

00:01:53.380 --> 00:01:56.500 align:middle line:84%
In your personal air
when someone doesn't, ask

00:01:56.500 --> 00:01:58.090 align:middle line:90%
are you well-behaved?

00:01:58.090 --> 00:01:58.810 align:middle line:90%
Quiet.

00:01:58.810 --> 00:01:59.980 align:middle line:90%
Keep your head down.

00:01:59.980 --> 00:02:02.620 align:middle line:90%
Asks instead if you are OK.

00:02:02.620 --> 00:02:03.820 align:middle line:90%
How are you?

00:02:03.820 --> 00:02:08.110 align:middle line:84%
Are you alive in your heart,
in your blue cage where

00:02:08.110 --> 00:02:11.189 align:middle line:90%
nothing caged is allowed?

00:02:11.189 --> 00:02:12.099 align:middle line:90%
