00:00:02.340 --> 00:00:07.630 align:middle line:84%
And another one written
recently, the same time.

00:00:07.630 --> 00:00:10.200 align:middle line:84%
"You think they are
permanent but they pass."

00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:12.750 align:middle line:90%


00:00:12.750 --> 00:00:16.020 align:middle line:84%
You think they are
permanent but they pass

00:00:16.020 --> 00:00:21.060 align:middle line:84%
and only contemplation
serves to save their memory.

00:00:21.060 --> 00:00:24.780 align:middle line:84%
You are in the Pan-World
Building with the leaders.

00:00:24.780 --> 00:00:26.610 align:middle line:90%
They all seem real.

00:00:26.610 --> 00:00:28.740 align:middle line:90%
They all seem permanent.

00:00:28.740 --> 00:00:31.740 align:middle line:84%
But soon you are in
the Pan-World Building

00:00:31.740 --> 00:00:33.900 align:middle line:90%
with the past.

00:00:33.900 --> 00:00:37.560 align:middle line:84%
How closely and
with what immediacy

00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:40.200 align:middle line:84%
you scrutinize the
features of each

00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:47.310 align:middle line:84%
noted face, President, old poet,
Supreme Court Chief Justice,

00:00:47.310 --> 00:00:50.490 align:middle line:90%
Secretary to the United Nations.

00:00:50.490 --> 00:00:54.810 align:middle line:84%
How lively their speech,
lively their looks

00:00:54.810 --> 00:00:57.960 align:middle line:84%
as all together in
one banquet place.

00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:01.980 align:middle line:84%
You would think there
would be no end to this.

00:01:01.980 --> 00:01:05.820 align:middle line:84%
Who in the reality
of his high days

00:01:05.820 --> 00:01:09.480 align:middle line:84%
thinks of the
destitution of the night?

00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:11.880 align:middle line:84%
You think they are
permanent but they

00:01:11.880 --> 00:01:17.420 align:middle line:84%
pass to feed ravens
of the ravenous past.

00:01:17.420 --> 00:01:18.000 align:middle line:90%
