00:00:00.930 --> 00:00:03.840 align:middle line:90%
Come back to me.

00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:07.440 align:middle line:84%
My friend Martha believes
when she's not there

00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:10.480 align:middle line:90%
she doesn't exist for people.

00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:12.990 align:middle line:84%
And just because I'm
not talking about you,

00:00:12.990 --> 00:00:17.730 align:middle line:84%
Mr. Tree, just because I can't
hear you crash on the forest

00:00:17.730 --> 00:00:21.150 align:middle line:90%
floor, does that mean--

00:00:21.150 --> 00:00:25.080 align:middle line:84%
The same is true of all
wars I never fought in--

00:00:25.080 --> 00:00:32.729 align:middle line:84%
blood, gunpowder, bodies
smoldering on rice paddies.

00:00:32.729 --> 00:00:36.420 align:middle line:84%
That dizzy adrenaline
rush in a fighter plane

00:00:36.420 --> 00:00:39.750 align:middle line:90%
I can almost imagine it was me.

00:00:39.750 --> 00:00:45.000 align:middle line:84%
Silly girl, remember the
body count, the TV news,

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.060 align:middle line:84%
the TV news, ghoulishly
there, and not

00:00:48.060 --> 00:00:54.420 align:middle line:84%
there, battlefields and soldiers
in the fake mahogany RCA frame?

00:00:54.420 --> 00:00:58.290 align:middle line:84%
Other props included
stereo, stack of LPs,

00:00:58.290 --> 00:01:02.160 align:middle line:84%
my dad's dish of ice cream,
or my kids leaping up

00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:06.120 align:middle line:84%
to change the channel
back to the Flintstones.

00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:08.790 align:middle line:90%
Wilma always looks so worried.

00:01:08.790 --> 00:01:10.230 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHS]

00:01:10.230 --> 00:01:13.740 align:middle line:90%
Better Wilma than Martha or me.

00:01:13.740 --> 00:01:17.910 align:middle line:84%
I was looking anywhere
for inspiration, dear.

00:01:17.910 --> 00:01:21.780 align:middle line:84%
The underside of a leaf
struck me as miraculous,

00:01:21.780 --> 00:01:28.160 align:middle line:84%
possibly not seen by any
other human eye, but so what.

00:01:28.160 --> 00:01:29.000 align:middle line:90%
