"Kore".

00:00:01.005 --> 00:00:04.019 align:middle line:90%


00:00:04.019 --> 00:00:06.930 align:middle line:84%
"As I was walking
I came upon chance

00:00:06.930 --> 00:00:09.810 align:middle line:90%
walking the same road upon.

00:00:09.810 --> 00:00:14.310 align:middle line:84%
As I sat down by chance
to move later if and as

00:00:14.310 --> 00:00:18.750 align:middle line:84%
I might, light the wood was,
light and green, and what

00:00:18.750 --> 00:00:22.230 align:middle line:90%
I saw before I had not seen.

00:00:22.230 --> 00:00:27.840 align:middle line:84%
It was a lady accompanied
by goat men leading her.

00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:29.880 align:middle line:90%
Her hair held earth.

00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:31.590 align:middle line:90%
Her eyes were dark.

00:00:31.590 --> 00:00:34.950 align:middle line:90%
A double flute made her move.

00:00:34.950 --> 00:00:38.910 align:middle line:84%
O love, where are
you leading me now?"

00:00:38.910 --> 00:00:42.810 align:middle line:90%


00:00:42.810 --> 00:00:45.960 align:middle line:84%
I certainly gave
you a lot of poems.

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:48.120 align:middle line:84%
I was a little
conscious of the time.

00:00:48.120 --> 00:00:54.090 align:middle line:84%
The next one, I remember
reading somewhere

00:00:54.090 --> 00:00:57.300 align:middle line:84%
that Robert Graves makes
a comment to the effect

00:00:57.300 --> 00:00:59.880 align:middle line:84%
that he distrusts
the domestic news

00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:03.360 align:middle line:84%
and feels that it's a
questionable allegiance.

00:01:03.360 --> 00:01:06.690 align:middle line:84%
Or rather that one should
be ready to leave all

00:01:06.690 --> 00:01:12.060 align:middle line:84%
at any moment, which is true,
but not in the sense of a--

00:01:12.060 --> 00:01:16.440 align:middle line:84%
not in a sense of a
kind of boast, at least.

00:01:16.440 --> 00:01:21.690 align:middle line:84%
And for myself, I think that
the so-called domestic situation

00:01:21.690 --> 00:01:25.890 align:middle line:84%
has always been my
own center, as it

00:01:25.890 --> 00:01:32.340 align:middle line:84%
has been for many of the
people whom I closely respect.

00:01:32.340 --> 00:01:35.280 align:middle line:84%
I was thinking that,
curiously, the--

00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:36.900 align:middle line:84%
for Allen Ginsberg,
it's curiously

00:01:36.900 --> 00:01:41.580 align:middle line:84%
the domestic situation
also, although it's quite--

00:01:41.580 --> 00:01:43.830 align:middle line:84%
his life has led him
to confrontations

00:01:43.830 --> 00:01:46.830 align:middle line:84%
that mine has perhaps been
blessed by not having to face.

00:01:46.830 --> 00:01:49.650 align:middle line:84%
I mean, a poem is Kaddish
after almost more deeply

00:01:49.650 --> 00:01:52.950 align:middle line:90%
into the context and texture.

00:01:52.950 --> 00:01:54.990 align:middle line:84%
Well, whatever to call
it, I mean, the actuality

00:01:54.990 --> 00:01:59.340 align:middle line:84%
of a life in relation to
that, which gave that life.

00:01:59.340 --> 00:02:02.400 align:middle line:90%
There's any poem I can think of.

00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:06.390 align:middle line:84%
But in any case, if that's
to be outlawed, and then

00:02:06.390 --> 00:02:10.010 align:middle line:84%
I can't agree with that,
which prescribes against it.
