00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:06.300 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to skip
most of the bloodshed

00:00:06.300 --> 00:00:09.600 align:middle line:84%
but I want to read this one
more kind of affectionate poem

00:00:09.600 --> 00:00:12.420 align:middle line:84%
tonight and then a
couple at the very end.

00:00:12.420 --> 00:00:14.340 align:middle line:90%
This one is called "Your Nose."

00:00:14.340 --> 00:00:17.430 align:middle line:84%
It's addressed to
the lady's nose.

00:00:17.430 --> 00:00:22.440 align:middle line:84%
It is a snail that hesitates
on a hedge under eucalyptus.

00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.260 align:middle line:90%
It is the fist of a new child.

00:00:25.260 --> 00:00:28.350 align:middle line:84%
It is an accurate nose
like an adding machine

00:00:28.350 --> 00:00:30.870 align:middle line:90%
powered by perfect electricity.

00:00:30.870 --> 00:00:31.830 align:middle line:90%
Yet it has no cords.

00:00:31.830 --> 00:00:34.590 align:middle line:90%
It does not run on batteries.

00:00:34.590 --> 00:00:39.420 align:middle line:84%
It is an observatory for
observing moons and planets.

00:00:39.420 --> 00:00:43.230 align:middle line:90%
I watch it revolve.

00:00:43.230 --> 00:00:47.430 align:middle line:84%
It is a birch bark
canoe Indians paddle.

00:00:47.430 --> 00:00:50.280 align:middle line:84%
It is the egg of a
demonstrable bird.

00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:51.780 align:middle line:90%
Do not sit on this nose.

00:00:51.780 --> 00:00:54.180 align:middle line:90%
It might hatch.

00:00:54.180 --> 00:00:58.500 align:middle line:84%
When I tell the nose about
the nose, the nose laughs.

00:00:58.500 --> 00:00:59.000 align:middle line:90%
