Well, here's a poem
which should be

00:00:05.220 --> 00:00:08.710 align:middle line:84%
in line with this
dedication, "Suddenly New."

00:00:08.710 --> 00:00:12.000 align:middle line:84%
It's called "All Quiet,"
written at the start of one

00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:14.130 align:middle line:84%
of our bombing pauses
over North Vietnam.

00:00:14.130 --> 00:00:17.780 align:middle line:90%


00:00:17.780 --> 00:00:20.510 align:middle line:84%
How come nobody's
being bombed today?

00:00:20.510 --> 00:00:21.900 align:middle line:90%
I wanted to know.

00:00:21.900 --> 00:00:25.490 align:middle line:84%
Being a citizen of this
country. and a family man,

00:00:25.490 --> 00:00:29.720 align:middle line:84%
you can't take my fate in your
hands without informing me.

00:00:29.720 --> 00:00:32.540 align:middle line:84%
I can blow up a bomb
or crush a skull.

00:00:32.540 --> 00:00:35.540 align:middle line:84%
Whoever started this
piece without advising me

00:00:35.540 --> 00:00:38.150 align:middle line:84%
through a news leak
at which I could

00:00:38.150 --> 00:00:41.960 align:middle line:84%
have voiced a protest, running
my whole family off a cliff.

00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:45.257 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:45.257 --> 00:00:46.670 align:middle line:90%


00:00:46.670 --> 00:00:48.050 align:middle line:90%
And don't you think it's true?

00:00:48.050 --> 00:00:51.100 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:51.100 --> 00:00:53.000 align:middle line:90%
