00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:04.440 align:middle line:84%
I'll change all
the now radically

00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:06.240 align:middle line:90%
as I can and do something else.

00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:10.980 align:middle line:90%


00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:14.190 align:middle line:84%
I'll read the section
of a half a dozen poems.

00:00:14.190 --> 00:00:16.290 align:middle line:84%
And let's take a
break for 10 minutes

00:00:16.290 --> 00:00:19.830 align:middle line:84%
or so and then come back
for another 20 minutes, OK?

00:00:19.830 --> 00:00:25.830 align:middle line:90%


00:00:25.830 --> 00:00:30.090 align:middle line:84%
So I'm really kind of
curious about something

00:00:30.090 --> 00:00:40.390 align:middle line:84%
in my own processes
because rationally, I'm

00:00:40.390 --> 00:00:45.610 align:middle line:84%
areligious and anticlerical,
but I find myself often

00:00:45.610 --> 00:00:52.180 align:middle line:84%
writing poems derived from
Christianity and mostly

00:00:52.180 --> 00:00:55.510 align:middle line:90%
about lambs for some reason.

00:00:55.510 --> 00:01:03.690 align:middle line:84%
So I'm going to read
several poems, which

00:01:03.690 --> 00:01:08.280 align:middle line:84%
might be unconsciously
religious, I don't know.

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.900 align:middle line:84%
I'll try, and see
what you think.

00:01:11.900 --> 00:01:16.350 align:middle line:84%
And since this is Thursday,
this is a "Grace for Thursday."

00:01:16.350 --> 00:01:19.500 align:middle line:90%
Grace for Thursday--

00:01:19.500 --> 00:01:23.850 align:middle line:84%
God help us on a day
like this in one of many.

00:01:23.850 --> 00:01:26.880 align:middle line:84%
The day was full of
merciful activity,

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:31.410 align:middle line:84%
but we got through
at last to supper.

00:01:31.410 --> 00:01:32.970 align:middle line:90%
Lamb will be good.

00:01:32.970 --> 00:01:35.160 align:middle line:90%
But do no good.

00:01:35.160 --> 00:01:39.720 align:middle line:84%
Christ knows where it will
be tomorrow down the drain.

00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:44.400 align:middle line:84%
Oh, it was slaughtered like
himself and hung to dry.

00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:49.200 align:middle line:84%
So may we eat it up,
talking in mindless ease.

00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:55.500 align:middle line:84%
And by the fish wife, Mary, star
of the sea, ride out this night

00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:58.500 align:middle line:90%
and eat said fish on Friday.

00:01:58.500 --> 00:01:59.000 align:middle line:90%
