00:00:01.925 --> 00:00:04.470 align:middle line:84%
I'll read two more
from Magritte Series

00:00:04.470 --> 00:00:10.860 align:middle line:84%
This is called The Revolution
and it's about two people

00:00:10.860 --> 00:00:17.280 align:middle line:84%
trying to talk who are
involved in different kinds

00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:19.300 align:middle line:84%
of revolution, both
very seriously.

00:00:19.300 --> 00:00:23.190 align:middle line:84%
One a more public kind of
political revolution and one

00:00:23.190 --> 00:00:26.670 align:middle line:84%
a more private or personal
kind of revolution

00:00:26.670 --> 00:00:30.810 align:middle line:84%
of consciousness and
an attempt to see

00:00:30.810 --> 00:00:32.790 align:middle line:90%
if those two can communicate.

00:00:32.790 --> 00:00:37.960 align:middle line:90%


00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:41.290 align:middle line:90%
The revolution.

00:00:41.290 --> 00:00:48.370 align:middle line:84%
Everything is so agreeable,
tangential, so light of foot.

00:00:48.370 --> 00:00:52.780 align:middle line:84%
Tangerine all pungent
with its leaves intact.

00:00:52.780 --> 00:00:56.620 align:middle line:84%
Still, revolution is
your quietest intent.

00:00:56.620 --> 00:00:59.920 align:middle line:84%
It throbs through your
kindness like a double bass

00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:02.500 align:middle line:90%
without amplification.

00:01:02.500 --> 00:01:05.110 align:middle line:84%
But you are persistent
and grow a callus

00:01:05.110 --> 00:01:10.420 align:middle line:84%
of light from so often
stroking the gut strings.

00:01:10.420 --> 00:01:14.470 align:middle line:84%
You hold its body next
to yours in the air.

00:01:14.470 --> 00:01:16.960 align:middle line:84%
And when you play
in the key of C,

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:19.420 align:middle line:84%
molecules forget
their lesser purpose

00:01:19.420 --> 00:01:23.650 align:middle line:84%
and turn swiftly,
breathing the new physics.

00:01:23.650 --> 00:01:24.880 align:middle line:90%
I listen.

00:01:24.880 --> 00:01:28.180 align:middle line:84%
You invite me to care
on a grand scale.

00:01:28.180 --> 00:01:31.510 align:middle line:90%
What must I leave behind me?

00:01:31.510 --> 00:01:35.110 align:middle line:84%
Like you, I give the
finger to standing still.

00:01:35.110 --> 00:01:36.220 align:middle line:90%
I'm tactile.

00:01:36.220 --> 00:01:40.180 align:middle line:84%
Here are all my fingers
to place inside yours.

00:01:40.180 --> 00:01:43.630 align:middle line:84%
Looked at loosely within
any frame of reference,

00:01:43.630 --> 00:01:45.760 align:middle line:90%
I could seem predictable.

00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:46.900 align:middle line:90%
Don't be fooled.

00:01:46.900 --> 00:01:51.100 align:middle line:84%
Bumpy ovals of color
thrill me tangentially.

00:01:51.100 --> 00:01:54.160 align:middle line:84%
I count on your intelligence
with or without you

00:01:54.160 --> 00:01:55.480 align:middle line:90%
sitting there.

00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:58.690 align:middle line:90%
Still, I want more.

00:01:58.690 --> 00:02:02.740 align:middle line:84%
Perfection begins to hurt
because love feels dangerous

00:02:02.740 --> 00:02:04.930 align:middle line:90%
and only one of us is you.

00:02:04.930 --> 00:02:08.320 align:middle line:84%
Only one of us is taking
the other's temperature.

00:02:08.320 --> 00:02:09.820 align:middle line:90%
It might be me.

00:02:09.820 --> 00:02:12.190 align:middle line:84%
But that could be
oversimplified since you often

00:02:12.190 --> 00:02:15.040 align:middle line:90%
choose not to tell.

00:02:15.040 --> 00:02:17.410 align:middle line:90%
What do you notice awake?

00:02:17.410 --> 00:02:21.970 align:middle line:84%
I notice I'm afraid to
break in on the fluidity.

00:02:21.970 --> 00:02:25.780 align:middle line:84%
My dreams ask questions,
the ones I've thought about

00:02:25.780 --> 00:02:28.270 align:middle line:90%
but can't speak.

00:02:28.270 --> 00:02:31.150 align:middle line:84%
Sleeping next to you
counts for a lot.

00:02:31.150 --> 00:02:33.070 align:middle line:90%
Your shadow wrestles with mine.

00:02:33.070 --> 00:02:37.960 align:middle line:84%
The glow is Kirlian What you
hide in the revolution pours

00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:40.090 align:middle line:90%
intimately through the dark.

00:02:40.090 --> 00:02:44.410 align:middle line:84%
Its effect can't be
measured in the real world.

00:02:44.410 --> 00:02:46.660 align:middle line:90%
All controls break down.

00:02:46.660 --> 00:02:51.220 align:middle line:84%
The sheets convey your
deepest sigh to my body.

00:02:51.220 --> 00:02:55.650 align:middle line:84%
You are not alarmed because
we don't say a word.

00:02:55.650 --> 00:02:56.484 align:middle line:90%
