00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:08.010 align:middle line:84%
Here's a poem about
several dreams.

00:00:08.010 --> 00:00:11.040 align:middle line:84%
It's a composite
of several dreams

00:00:11.040 --> 00:00:18.420 align:middle line:84%
that I have had in the past, and
it's called "Dreaming Winter."

00:00:18.420 --> 00:00:23.070 align:middle line:84%
And I think these dreams
were caused by hunger.

00:00:23.070 --> 00:00:24.960 align:middle line:84%
A lot of times when
you're really hungry,

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:28.710 align:middle line:84%
you have really
strange nightmares.

00:00:28.710 --> 00:00:31.620 align:middle line:84%
And I think all the times
I dreamed these things,

00:00:31.620 --> 00:00:34.770 align:middle line:90%
I was really hungry.

00:00:34.770 --> 00:00:36.480 align:middle line:84%
And if I wasn't, I
should have been.

00:00:36.480 --> 00:00:40.240 align:middle line:90%


00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:42.940 align:middle line:84%
Don't ask me if these
knives are real.

00:00:42.940 --> 00:00:47.170 align:middle line:84%
I could paint a king or
show a map the way home.

00:00:47.170 --> 00:00:49.210 align:middle line:90%
To go like this.

00:00:49.210 --> 00:00:52.460 align:middle line:84%
Wobble me back to
a tiger's dream.

00:00:52.460 --> 00:00:57.700 align:middle line:84%
A dream of knives and bones,
too common to be exposed.

00:00:57.700 --> 00:01:00.340 align:middle line:90%
My secrets are ignored.

00:01:00.340 --> 00:01:02.440 align:middle line:90%
Here comes the man I love.

00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:07.210 align:middle line:84%
His coat is wet and his face
is falling like the leaves.

00:01:07.210 --> 00:01:10.900 align:middle line:84%
Tobacco stains on
his Polish teeth.

00:01:10.900 --> 00:01:13.270 align:middle line:90%
I could tell jokes about him.

00:01:13.270 --> 00:01:18.430 align:middle line:84%
One up for the man who brags a
lot, laughs a little and paints

00:01:18.430 --> 00:01:20.980 align:middle line:90%
his face on the nearest knob.

00:01:20.980 --> 00:01:24.880 align:middle line:84%
Don't ask me, I know
it's only hunger.

00:01:24.880 --> 00:01:27.640 align:middle line:84%
I saw that king,
the one my sister

00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:29.950 align:middle line:90%
knew but was allergic to.

00:01:29.950 --> 00:01:33.100 align:middle line:84%
Her face ran, until
his eyes became

00:01:33.100 --> 00:01:35.620 align:middle line:90%
the white of several winters.

00:01:35.620 --> 00:01:39.790 align:middle line:84%
Snow on his bed, told
him that the silky tiers

00:01:39.790 --> 00:01:41.770 align:middle line:90%
were uniformly mad.

00:01:41.770 --> 00:01:45.250 align:middle line:84%
And all the money in the
world couldn't bring him

00:01:45.250 --> 00:01:47.560 align:middle line:90%
to a tragic end.

00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:51.040 align:middle line:84%
Shame or fortune
tricked me to his table.

00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:56.770 align:middle line:84%
Shattered by one standing
lie, with new kinds of fame.

00:01:56.770 --> 00:01:59.920 align:middle line:90%
Have mercy on me Lord, really.

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:04.480 align:middle line:84%
If I should die before I
wake, take me to that place.

00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:07.630 align:middle line:90%
I just heard banging in my ears.

00:02:07.630 --> 00:02:09.070 align:middle line:90%
Don't ask me.

00:02:09.070 --> 00:02:11.710 align:middle line:90%
Let me join the other kings.

00:02:11.710 --> 00:02:15.850 align:middle line:84%
The ones who trade their
knives for a sack of keys.

00:02:15.850 --> 00:02:20.230 align:middle line:84%
Let me open any door,
stand winters still

00:02:20.230 --> 00:02:24.000 align:middle line:90%
and drowned in a common dream.

00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.000 align:middle line:90%
