[APPLAUSE]

00:00:00.660 --> 00:00:02.670 align:middle line:84%
I have two more things
I'm going to read.

00:00:02.670 --> 00:00:05.550 align:middle line:84%
I think I should read the
poem that's on the broadside.

00:00:05.550 --> 00:00:06.570 align:middle line:90%
Let me just grab that.

00:00:06.570 --> 00:00:14.250 align:middle line:90%


00:00:14.250 --> 00:00:17.040 align:middle line:84%
This is, again, a poem
about possibility.

00:00:17.040 --> 00:00:19.950 align:middle line:84%
The possibility that is near,
that is-- that it is us.

00:00:19.950 --> 00:00:24.990 align:middle line:84%
This is called "Sudden
Smells, Sudden Songs."

00:00:24.990 --> 00:00:27.210 align:middle line:90%
"Where does it all come from--

00:00:27.210 --> 00:00:30.090 align:middle line:84%
the sap of
strangeness inside us?

00:00:30.090 --> 00:00:32.800 align:middle line:90%
The sudden flow of feeling--

00:00:32.800 --> 00:00:34.800 align:middle line:90%
I love that song!

00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:37.920 align:middle line:84%
That lighter blood,
that second breath,

00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:45.160 align:middle line:84%
that something where, in the
darkness, a knob is turned.

00:00:45.160 --> 00:00:47.140 align:middle line:90%
Who are we then?

00:00:47.140 --> 00:00:51.670 align:middle line:84%
In that moment, we are not
who we were a second ago.

00:00:51.670 --> 00:00:57.700 align:middle line:84%
A quick smell of rosemary
changes us that fast.

00:00:57.700 --> 00:01:01.690 align:middle line:84%
We stand up, familiar
to ourselves,

00:01:01.690 --> 00:01:05.060 align:middle line:90%
then sit down strangers.

00:01:05.060 --> 00:01:09.280 align:middle line:90%
We are two people.

00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:11.160 align:middle line:90%
Maybe more."

00:01:11.160 --> 00:01:12.000 align:middle line:90%
