00:00:02.830 --> 00:00:03.900 align:middle line:90%
I just keep looking.

00:00:03.900 --> 00:00:05.590 align:middle line:90%
I'll come across something.

00:00:05.590 --> 00:00:13.920 align:middle line:90%


00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:16.950 align:middle line:90%
"Poems the Dead Know by Heart."

00:00:16.950 --> 00:00:20.160 align:middle line:84%
Long poems are for the
dead whose eyes are closed

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:22.500 align:middle line:90%
to the shortness of life.

00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:26.520 align:middle line:84%
They know everything by heart
and the poem sings itself

00:00:26.520 --> 00:00:28.650 align:middle line:90%
in their naked bones.

00:00:28.650 --> 00:00:33.600 align:middle line:84%
They are the long poem concluded
that began with the skull

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.090 align:middle line:90%
and reached to the toes.

00:00:36.090 --> 00:00:39.300 align:middle line:84%
The body lived until
no longer needed.

00:00:39.300 --> 00:00:43.040 align:middle line:84%
The poem then put
between covers.

00:00:43.040 --> 00:00:46.000 align:middle line:90%
