00:00:00.610 --> 00:00:04.035 align:middle line:84%
This is from The Lady in Kicking
Horse Reservoir, "With Kathy

00:00:04.035 --> 00:00:05.970 align:middle line:90%
at Wisdom."

00:00:05.970 --> 00:00:09.690 align:middle line:84%
I only dreamed that
high cliff we were on,

00:00:09.690 --> 00:00:13.830 align:middle line:84%
overlooking Wisdom and
the Big Hole drain.

00:00:13.830 --> 00:00:17.160 align:middle line:84%
I dreamed us high
enough to not see men,

00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:20.790 align:middle line:84%
dreamed old land
behind us better left.

00:00:20.790 --> 00:00:23.160 align:middle line:90%
And we were vagabond.

00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:26.940 align:middle line:84%
We went twice to
Wisdom, not in dream.

00:00:26.940 --> 00:00:30.330 align:middle line:84%
Once in day, odd
couple after brooks.

00:00:30.330 --> 00:00:32.700 align:middle line:84%
And then at night,
dark derelicts

00:00:32.700 --> 00:00:36.090 align:middle line:84%
obsessed with fake false
fronts for tourists

00:00:36.090 --> 00:00:38.130 align:middle line:90%
and the empty church.

00:00:38.130 --> 00:00:40.170 align:middle line:90%
I dream the cliff again.

00:00:40.170 --> 00:00:41.370 align:middle line:90%
Evening.

00:00:41.370 --> 00:00:44.790 align:middle line:84%
Deep beneath, Wisdom
turning lights on.

00:00:44.790 --> 00:00:48.600 align:middle line:84%
Neon flakes are
planets when we touch.

00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:53.280 align:middle line:84%
I wake up shouting,
Wisdom's not that much,

00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:57.720 align:middle line:84%
and sweating, Wisdom
never will be bright.

00:00:57.720 --> 00:00:59.850 align:middle line:90%
Lord, we need sun.

00:00:59.850 --> 00:01:04.110 align:middle line:90%
We need moon, fern and mercy.

00:01:04.110 --> 00:01:07.230 align:middle line:90%
Form and dream destroyed.

00:01:07.230 --> 00:01:09.420 align:middle line:90%
Need the cliff torn down.

00:01:09.420 --> 00:01:15.390 align:middle line:84%
To hold hands and stare down
the raw void of the day.

00:01:15.390 --> 00:01:17.940 align:middle line:90%
Be my contraband.

00:01:17.940 --> 00:01:22.620 align:middle line:84%
Three fat eastern brook a
night, that's my private limit.

00:01:22.620 --> 00:01:26.730 align:middle line:84%
The cliff broke, and
wind pours in on Wisdom,

00:01:26.730 --> 00:01:30.690 align:middle line:84%
leaving false fronts
really what they seem.

00:01:30.690 --> 00:01:33.390 align:middle line:90%
Morning Wisdom, Kathy.

00:01:33.390 --> 00:01:36.982 align:middle line:90%
It is no dream.

00:01:36.982 --> 00:01:40.433 align:middle line:90%
[APPLAUSE]

00:01:40.433 --> 00:01:43.890 align:middle line:90%


00:01:43.890 --> 00:01:45.800 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.
