00:00:01.530 --> 00:00:07.110 align:middle line:84%
So here's another poem of
my undergraduate poems.

00:00:07.110 --> 00:00:12.240 align:middle line:84%
Acts past beyond the
boundary of mere wishing.

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:18.570 align:middle line:84%
Not privy looks, hedged
words at times you saw.

00:00:18.570 --> 00:00:21.540 align:middle line:84%
These blundering,
heart surrendered

00:00:21.540 --> 00:00:28.440 align:middle line:84%
troopers were small presence
made and waiting for the tram.

00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:34.650 align:middle line:84%
Then once you said waiting was
very kind and looked surprised.

00:00:34.650 --> 00:00:38.640 align:middle line:84%
Surprising for me too,
whose every movement had

00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:40.050 align:middle line:90%
been missionary.

00:00:40.050 --> 00:00:42.960 align:middle line:90%
A pleasing tongue unheard.

00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:46.860 align:middle line:84%
I had not thought that
you, who nothing else saw,

00:00:46.860 --> 00:00:48.570 align:middle line:90%
would see this.

00:00:48.570 --> 00:00:52.230 align:middle line:84%
So very kind was
merest overflow.

00:00:52.230 --> 00:00:55.350 align:middle line:84%
Something I had not
reckoned in myself.

00:00:55.350 --> 00:00:58.620 align:middle line:90%
A chance deserter from my force.

00:00:58.620 --> 00:01:03.780 align:middle line:84%
When we touched hands,
I felt the whole rebel,

00:01:03.780 --> 00:01:08.250 align:middle line:84%
feared mutiny, and
turned away thinking,

00:01:08.250 --> 00:01:11.310 align:middle line:84%
if these were trickling
through a dam,

00:01:11.310 --> 00:01:15.960 align:middle line:84%
I must have love enough
to run a factory on, or give

00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:20.430 align:middle line:90%
a city power, or drive a train.

00:01:20.430 --> 00:01:23.640 align:middle line:84%
Well that's a sort
of cosmic love poem.

00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:25.490 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:01:25.490 --> 00:01:26.000 align:middle line:90%
