00:00:00.990 --> 00:00:06.870 align:middle line:84%
This one is called
"Feeling With my Hands."

00:00:06.870 --> 00:00:11.640 align:middle line:84%
This again takes another
view of the subject.

00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:16.350 align:middle line:84%
"Will this poem be able to
think and breathe and have sex?

00:00:16.350 --> 00:00:21.030 align:middle line:84%
Will it be able to lift a finger
to call a waiter for the menu?

00:00:21.030 --> 00:00:22.890 align:middle line:84%
Will it have hopes
of a future life?

00:00:22.890 --> 00:00:25.620 align:middle line:84%
Will it have friends
among other poems?

00:00:25.620 --> 00:00:29.100 align:middle line:84%
Oh yes, will it be able
to write other poems?

00:00:29.100 --> 00:00:32.189 align:middle line:84%
I do not want it to
rest on its merits,

00:00:32.189 --> 00:00:36.240 align:middle line:84%
I want others to look through it
to see me breathing and taking

00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.290 align:middle line:84%
food and embracing
my wife telling her

00:00:40.290 --> 00:00:42.510 align:middle line:90%
she has lovely teeth.

00:00:42.510 --> 00:00:45.120 align:middle line:84%
This poem should
have an erection

00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:48.690 align:middle line:84%
and everywhere should
say, hello and be a friend

00:00:48.690 --> 00:00:51.420 align:middle line:84%
and not hesitate to tell
other poems what it thinks

00:00:51.420 --> 00:00:56.460 align:middle line:84%
about them, be pleasant
but be truthful, be happy

00:00:56.460 --> 00:00:58.590 align:middle line:90%
but fear not death.

00:00:58.590 --> 00:01:02.610 align:middle line:84%
Here it is and I am
still talking and feeling

00:01:02.610 --> 00:01:04.640 align:middle line:90%
with my hands."
