00:00:03.780 --> 00:00:06.510 align:middle line:84%
This is from one of my
manuscripts I'm working on.

00:00:06.510 --> 00:00:09.330 align:middle line:84%
The working title
is Other Archer.

00:00:09.330 --> 00:00:11.158 align:middle line:84%
And Laynie hadn't
heard some of these,

00:00:11.158 --> 00:00:12.450 align:middle line:90%
so I want to read some for her.

00:00:12.450 --> 00:00:14.940 align:middle line:84%
This is a love
poem to my husband.

00:00:14.940 --> 00:00:17.040 align:middle line:90%
His name is Tony Torn.

00:00:17.040 --> 00:00:18.480 align:middle line:90%
So it's called "Torn."

00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:22.200 align:middle line:84%
And it's an acrostic
of his name.

00:00:22.200 --> 00:00:22.860 align:middle line:90%
One.

00:00:22.860 --> 00:00:26.010 align:middle line:84%
To start off something
in a peaceful way,

00:00:26.010 --> 00:00:28.860 align:middle line:90%
or stay hungry, hunter.

00:00:28.860 --> 00:00:32.520 align:middle line:84%
Now we'll study in your Chinese
bed, stretched wall to wall.

00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:36.120 align:middle line:84%
The rain muffles the noise
of my foot on the stair.

00:00:36.120 --> 00:00:38.580 align:middle line:84%
Rain, lightning,
thunder, next to my

00:00:38.580 --> 00:00:41.980 align:middle line:84%
How and Why Wonder
Book of Trees.

00:00:41.980 --> 00:00:42.812 align:middle line:90%
Two.

00:00:42.812 --> 00:00:44.790 align:middle line:90%
To walk in the scholar's garden.

00:00:44.790 --> 00:00:46.830 align:middle line:90%
Attention, you did me good.

00:00:46.830 --> 00:00:50.310 align:middle line:84%
I passed up near those
trees many times.

00:00:50.310 --> 00:00:54.390 align:middle line:84%
It is time for a condensation
overcoat puzzling evening.

00:00:54.390 --> 00:00:56.430 align:middle line:90%
Torn is rent but not rented out.

00:00:56.430 --> 00:00:58.230 align:middle line:90%
Articulate.

00:00:58.230 --> 00:00:59.220 align:middle line:90%
Three.

00:00:59.220 --> 00:01:02.220 align:middle line:84%
To you my punch drunk love, I
only cling to your neck nape.

00:01:02.220 --> 00:01:04.739 align:middle line:84%
For yonder prism
guards are tonsured.

00:01:04.739 --> 00:01:09.530 align:middle line:84%
Transcribe oracular missives,
rain ravens, and rave non-stop.
