This is where I'm
from, "Aberdeen".

00:00:08.840 --> 00:00:11.720 align:middle line:84%
"The gray sea
turns in its sleep,

00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:15.740 align:middle line:84%
disturbing seagulls
from the green rock.

00:00:15.740 --> 00:00:18.280 align:middle line:90%


00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:20.770 align:middle line:90%
We watched the lung collapse.

00:00:20.770 --> 00:00:25.180 align:middle line:84%
The black drop and frothing
of the toppled wave

00:00:25.180 --> 00:00:29.500 align:middle line:84%
looked out on the dark
that goes to Norway.

00:00:29.500 --> 00:00:32.650 align:middle line:84%
We lay all night in
an open boat that's

00:00:32.650 --> 00:00:36.670 align:middle line:84%
rocked by the harbor wall,
listening to the tires

00:00:36.670 --> 00:00:42.310 align:middle line:84%
creak at the stone quay,
trying to keep time

00:00:42.310 --> 00:00:46.780 align:middle line:84%
till the night fishers
came in their ark,

00:00:46.780 --> 00:00:50.200 align:middle line:90%
in their lap of light.

00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:57.130 align:middle line:84%
The fat slap of waves, the
waters sway, the water,

00:00:57.130 --> 00:01:00.680 align:middle line:90%
mullioned with light.

00:01:00.680 --> 00:01:06.300 align:middle line:84%
The sifting rain,
italic rain, the smur

00:01:06.300 --> 00:01:11.670 align:middle line:84%
that drifted down
for days, the sleet.

00:01:11.670 --> 00:01:18.300 align:middle line:84%
Your hair full of
hail as if sown there.

00:01:18.300 --> 00:01:25.620 align:middle line:84%
In the damp sheets, we left each
other sea gifts, watermarks,

00:01:25.620 --> 00:01:31.770 align:middle line:84%
long-lost now in all these years
of the riptide swell and troll.

00:01:31.770 --> 00:01:34.320 align:middle line:90%


00:01:34.320 --> 00:01:38.010 align:middle line:84%
All night, the feeding
storm backed up

00:01:38.010 --> 00:01:40.650 align:middle line:90%
the streets and houses.

00:01:40.650 --> 00:01:46.170 align:middle line:84%
In the morning, the sky was
yellow, the frost ringing.

00:01:46.170 --> 00:01:48.750 align:middle line:90%


00:01:48.750 --> 00:01:55.470 align:middle line:84%
The gray sea turns in its
sleep, disturbing seagulls

00:01:55.470 --> 00:01:58.250 align:middle line:90%
from the green rock."
