00:00:01.900 --> 00:00:04.570 align:middle line:90%
Hey.

00:00:04.570 --> 00:00:06.370 align:middle line:84%
I was saying to my
friend, Karen Brennan,

00:00:06.370 --> 00:00:09.580 align:middle line:84%
today that I feel bad because I
never think of anything to say

00:00:09.580 --> 00:00:11.320 align:middle line:90%
in between poems.

00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:14.650 align:middle line:84%
And when I say things,
they're stupid.

00:00:14.650 --> 00:00:20.410 align:middle line:84%
So I try not to
say anything much.

00:00:20.410 --> 00:00:22.040 align:middle line:90%
Just, kind of, stall.

00:00:22.040 --> 00:00:25.120 align:middle line:90%


00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:27.865 align:middle line:84%
This is called "The
Life You Save."

00:00:27.865 --> 00:00:33.010 align:middle line:90%


00:00:33.010 --> 00:00:36.220 align:middle line:84%
After the pine fields,
there's the marsh--

00:00:36.220 --> 00:00:39.730 align:middle line:90%
you can see it from here.

00:00:39.730 --> 00:00:42.910 align:middle line:90%
And after that?

00:00:42.910 --> 00:00:47.320 align:middle line:84%
History ending-- myth,
as it starts to stir.

00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:49.970 align:middle line:90%


00:00:49.970 --> 00:00:50.750 align:middle line:90%
And after that?

00:00:50.750 --> 00:00:53.900 align:middle line:90%


00:00:53.900 --> 00:00:57.560 align:middle line:84%
After that, just the
turning back again.

00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:00.260 align:middle line:90%
Nothing you won't know already--

00:01:00.260 --> 00:01:02.360 align:middle line:90%
the pinefield, the marsh.

00:01:02.360 --> 00:01:05.060 align:middle line:90%


00:01:05.060 --> 00:01:07.430 align:middle line:90%
And the reeds too?

00:01:07.430 --> 00:01:09.080 align:middle line:90%
The reeds that grow there?

00:01:09.080 --> 00:01:11.600 align:middle line:90%


00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:15.290 align:middle line:84%
Yes, and the reeds
that grow there--

00:01:15.290 --> 00:01:21.530 align:middle line:84%
beautiful, invasive, they
jostle in the smallest wind.

00:01:21.530 --> 00:01:25.570 align:middle line:84%
Soon it will be as if
nothing had ever happened.

00:01:25.570 --> 00:01:29.000 align:middle line:90%
