00:00:01.980 --> 00:00:04.110 align:middle line:84%
The first is called
"Feral floats the form

00:00:04.110 --> 00:00:05.460 align:middle line:90%
in heaven and of light."

00:00:05.460 --> 00:00:10.860 align:middle line:90%


00:00:10.860 --> 00:00:12.480 align:middle line:84%
"The famous and the
dead have learned

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:16.530 align:middle line:84%
to fall between our eyes
and their forms in heaven:

00:00:16.530 --> 00:00:19.610 align:middle line:84%
A philosophical eclipse,
which edges them

00:00:19.610 --> 00:00:22.470 align:middle line:84%
in light like bodies
in the 19th century

00:00:22.470 --> 00:00:27.690 align:middle line:84%
photo plates enwrapped in their
emanations and pale shrouds.

00:00:27.690 --> 00:00:30.720 align:middle line:84%
They have their own
cities called "Necropolis"

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:34.980 align:middle line:84%
and "New York," built of what
they are said to have said,

00:00:34.980 --> 00:00:37.380 align:middle line:90%
the famous and the dead.

00:00:37.380 --> 00:00:40.020 align:middle line:84%
In your gleaming imitations
where the density of things

00:00:40.020 --> 00:00:42.780 align:middle line:84%
howls through the
evening's blue precincts

00:00:42.780 --> 00:00:45.000 align:middle line:84%
you hurry home to
practice passing drinks

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:50.230 align:middle line:84%
from mouth to mouth, you
the mere, the living.

00:00:50.230 --> 00:00:54.720 align:middle line:84%
Lit only by a faint electricity
whose mind is elsewhere.

00:00:54.720 --> 00:00:58.860 align:middle line:84%
You wrote of them often,
kissed one once, there

00:00:58.860 --> 00:01:00.330 align:middle line:84%
is a picture of
you in your chair

00:01:00.330 --> 00:01:03.900 align:middle line:84%
at the end of the century,
thinking their cities

00:01:03.900 --> 00:01:06.030 align:middle line:84%
until an aura and
awfulness surrounded

00:01:06.030 --> 00:01:10.020 align:middle line:84%
you, a motion appearing as
no motion at all, the inverse

00:01:10.020 --> 00:01:13.310 align:middle line:90%
of a wave, a demonology."
