00:00:00.960 --> 00:00:03.750 align:middle line:90%
Monologue.

00:00:03.750 --> 00:00:06.690 align:middle line:84%
Now that I am married,
I spend my hours

00:00:06.690 --> 00:00:09.000 align:middle line:90%
thinking about my husband.

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:12.340 align:middle line:90%
I wind myself about his shelter.

00:00:12.340 --> 00:00:17.730 align:middle line:84%
I watch his sleep, dreaming of
how to defend his inert form.

00:00:17.730 --> 00:00:22.540 align:middle line:84%
At night, leaning on my elbow, I
pretend I am merely a lecherous

00:00:22.540 --> 00:00:23.040 align:middle line:90%


00:00:23.040 --> 00:00:24.780 align:middle line:90%
friend.

00:00:24.780 --> 00:00:29.280 align:middle line:84%
And being the first to wake,
often wholly naked, descend

00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:32.729 align:middle line:84%
to the dim first floor,
where the chairs hold

00:00:32.729 --> 00:00:36.390 align:middle line:84%
the night before and
all says attend.

00:00:36.390 --> 00:00:40.770 align:middle line:84%
The light, so coldly
spells in innocence. Attend.

00:00:40.770 --> 00:00:42.840 align:middle line:90%
The cup is filled with light.

00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.560 align:middle line:84%
And on my skin, the
sun flashes and fades,

00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:49.370 align:middle line:90%
as the shade trees bend.

00:00:49.370 --> 00:00:50.000 align:middle line:90%
