00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:10.560 align:middle line:84%
And we'll end with this one, a
flashback to the cell, 289-128.

00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:15.440 align:middle line:84%
"The last stop is also a
beginning on the sea at 168th.

00:00:15.440 --> 00:00:17.670 align:middle line:90%
Poetry is hard, catches my eye.

00:00:17.670 --> 00:00:21.480 align:middle line:84%
And then we begin in the
dark reflecting exit signs.

00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:24.540 align:middle line:84%
Square tiles resemble
lives, lives in the box.

00:00:24.540 --> 00:00:27.750 align:middle line:84%
We are alone, the man
and I of no significance

00:00:27.750 --> 00:00:30.900 align:middle line:84%
and observed
through silent space

00:00:30.900 --> 00:00:33.810 align:middle line:84%
a life sentence
or robotic motion.

00:00:33.810 --> 00:00:37.560 align:middle line:84%
Yes, poetry is hard
but hard to tell.

00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:40.110 align:middle line:84%
It's just a regular
sentence is a lie.

00:00:40.110 --> 00:00:44.310 align:middle line:84%
Part of the problem, you
never know is [? at ?] a star

00:00:44.310 --> 00:00:45.930 align:middle line:90%
to language conflict.

00:00:45.930 --> 00:00:49.440 align:middle line:84%
Like the grinding wheels
pulling off from 155th,

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:53.025 align:middle line:84%
a ghost compartment much like
the cold cell in solitary

00:00:53.025 --> 00:00:57.420 align:middle line:84%
are occupied, that inescapable
silence when the body met

00:00:57.420 --> 00:01:00.360 align:middle line:84%
its shadow in a split
second on the concrete,

00:01:00.360 --> 00:01:05.250 align:middle line:84%
bringing to glass, faces
pressed inside a rectangular--

00:01:05.250 --> 00:01:08.490 align:middle line:84%
it's inside a rectangle, of
the after sound of the thud.

00:01:08.490 --> 00:01:12.090 align:middle line:84%
Still allowed years later,
another life expiring

00:01:12.090 --> 00:01:14.190 align:middle line:90%
from dear John.

00:01:14.190 --> 00:01:17.130 align:middle line:84%
Appearing at 125th,
a man is reading

00:01:17.130 --> 00:01:20.580 align:middle line:84%
Aeschylus, the only book
to read on the train.

00:01:20.580 --> 00:01:22.200 align:middle line:90%
No one reads books.

00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:26.490 align:middle line:84%
And we continue wrapped in
noise, a poetic interlude

00:01:26.490 --> 00:01:28.050 align:middle line:90%
for poetry's sake."

00:01:28.050 --> 00:01:29.870 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.
