Thanks, and this
is a translation

00:00:03.090 --> 00:00:06.900 align:middle line:84%
of whatever subliminal
messages you got from that,

00:00:06.900 --> 00:00:12.360 align:middle line:84%
and it's up there so that
you can see in what ways

00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:15.380 align:middle line:90%
I approach it.

00:00:15.380 --> 00:00:22.280 align:middle line:84%
"A language necessary for
anger but not retaliation.

Never used.

00:00:32.380 --> 00:00:34.000 align:middle line:90%
I understand.

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:36.850 align:middle line:90%
I understand so much.

00:00:36.850 --> 00:00:43.120 align:middle line:84%
Little brother, little iota,
my ode to plants, my obelisk.

00:00:43.120 --> 00:00:46.390 align:middle line:90%
The trouble with touching.

00:00:46.390 --> 00:00:48.040 align:middle line:90%

myth of one life.'

And I can't name that minor, but
that was a minor who I taught.

00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:03.440 align:middle line:90%
Little self-built dreams.

00:01:03.440 --> 00:01:04.879 align:middle line:90%
Little money, big stacks.

00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:06.410 align:middle line:90%
Little fruit, big lights.

00:01:06.410 --> 00:01:08.570 align:middle line:90%
Little stone, little one.

00:01:08.570 --> 00:01:12.080 align:middle line:90%
It's doubt and iridescence.

00:01:12.080 --> 00:01:14.900 align:middle line:84%
State personnel
says, keep it all.

00:01:14.900 --> 00:01:19.890 align:middle line:84%
State personnel redacts
subsequent statements.

00:01:19.890 --> 00:01:23.280 align:middle line:84%
Trafficking and
temporary consequence.

00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:27.420 align:middle line:90%
Bewilderment, remedy, burn.

00:01:27.420 --> 00:01:29.880 align:middle line:84%
Because the grant money
will be over soon,

00:01:29.880 --> 00:01:32.790 align:middle line:84%
it will be difficult to
imagine your freedom.

00:01:32.790 --> 00:01:35.430 align:middle line:84%
I am qualified to
talk about this.

00:01:35.430 --> 00:01:36.660 align:middle line:90%
Trust me.

00:01:36.660 --> 00:01:38.890 align:middle line:90%
I'm a specialist.

00:01:38.890 --> 00:01:42.490 align:middle line:84%
My day a portion to
critical thinking.

00:01:42.490 --> 00:01:48.370 align:middle line:84%
My imagination is
monastic, riddled and tame.

Must repeat the suffering
to preserve the suffering.

00:02:45.190 --> 00:02:49.930 align:middle line:84%
A way to keep the idea
without the parts that hurt.

A noteworthy and pristine
illusion and such.

One clover, one
bee, and reverie.'

00:03:38.250 --> 00:03:39.030 align:middle line:90%
It's OK.

Not an inconvenience.

00:03:47.260 --> 00:03:49.270 align:middle line:90%
Not an ethnography.

00:03:49.270 --> 00:03:50.860 align:middle line:90%
Not a testimony.

00:03:50.860 --> 00:03:53.110 align:middle line:90%
Not a redemption story.

00:03:53.110 --> 00:03:54.430 align:middle line:90%
Not an epiphany.

00:03:54.430 --> 00:03:56.050 align:middle line:90%
Not a laundry list.

00:03:56.050 --> 00:03:58.210 align:middle line:90%
Not a proof to a theorem.

00:03:58.210 --> 00:04:02.290 align:middle line:90%
A circus of inordinate objects.

00:04:02.290 --> 00:04:07.170 align:middle line:84%
You are valued for
your productivity.

00:04:07.170 --> 00:04:10.080 align:middle line:84%
There's a landscape, and
you're in the middle of it,

00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:12.840 align:middle line:84%
maybe drinking wine,
maybe reading a book.

is less important than
that you are there.

Unnamed detained minor from

'Let me break the

By our most
conservative estimates,

00:04:35.890 --> 00:04:41.200 align:middle line:84%
states could release at
least 13,500 more youth today

without great risk
to public safety,

from calculated
threat assessment.

Conditioned to think
of bodies in prison.

00:04:52.460 --> 00:04:59.130 align:middle line:84%
Not people in prison or to
reclaim collateral damage.

00:04:59.130 --> 00:05:05.220 align:middle line:84%
Priority, language from
a congressional hearing.

00:05:05.220 --> 00:05:08.220 align:middle line:84%
To process detainees
as quickly as possible,

00:05:08.220 --> 00:05:12.690 align:middle line:84%
a new detainee is charged
at a higher rate than one

00:05:12.690 --> 00:05:15.450 align:middle line:84%
who has been in the system
for longer than a year.

New detainees still have motions

people to call, panic
costs more money.

00:05:25.170 --> 00:05:27.240 align:middle line:84%
Long-term detainees

00:05:52.730 --> 00:05:56.390 align:middle line:90%
To be eligible, to be legible.

00:05:56.390 --> 00:06:02.510 align:middle line:84%
As in author a saturated texts
and author evacuated texts.

00:06:02.510 --> 00:06:07.810 align:middle line:84%
Methods that reduce anxieties
and enable efficiency.

00:06:07.810 --> 00:06:10.510 align:middle line:84%
One, the correlation
between detainee phone

00:06:10.510 --> 00:06:13.270 align:middle line:84%
calls and the jobs
held by their mothers.

00:06:13.270 --> 00:06:18.070 align:middle line:84%
Two, the correlation between
out-of-stock care package items

00:06:18.070 --> 00:06:20.350 align:middle line:90%
and their sodium concentration.

00:06:20.350 --> 00:06:23.710 align:middle line:84%
Three, the correlation
between suicides and distance

00:06:23.710 --> 00:06:26.230 align:middle line:90%
from home.

00:06:26.230 --> 00:06:29.380 align:middle line:90%
How lonely your splendor.

00:06:29.380 --> 00:06:33.250 align:middle line:84%
The rhyme between
splendor and rage.

00:06:33.250 --> 00:06:38.560 align:middle line:84%
A small anger and
a large splendor.

00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.490 align:middle line:90%
No luster quite so eponymous.

00:06:42.490 --> 00:06:47.620 align:middle line:84%
No pageantry that
can outlive us.

00:06:47.620 --> 00:06:54.306 align:middle line:84%
In a mass surveillance state,
we are all internet stars.

00:06:54.306 --> 00:06:56.740 align:middle line:90%
I look dutifully for your wound.

00:06:56.740 --> 00:06:59.520 align:middle line:90%


00:06:59.520 --> 00:07:02.460 align:middle line:84%
My mother wore a
GPS ankle bracelet

00:07:02.460 --> 00:07:06.300 align:middle line:90%
as a condition of her release.

00:07:06.300 --> 00:07:10.560 align:middle line:84%
GPS ankle monitors establish
patterns of movement.

00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:14.520 align:middle line:84%
Length and frequency of
travel to determine punishment

00:07:14.520 --> 00:07:18.280 align:middle line:90%
for departure from the mean.

00:07:18.280 --> 00:07:22.090 align:middle line:84%
30% expanded
definition of solitude,

00:07:22.090 --> 00:07:27.120 align:middle line:84%
and let us not
forgive any of it.

00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:32.880 align:middle line:84%
40% interrogation and
its limits of ascension.

00:07:32.880 --> 00:07:36.720 align:middle line:84%
30%, the committee
declares a center

00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:40.440 align:middle line:84%
to your abatement
pressed by and by.

00:07:40.440 --> 00:07:43.680 align:middle line:90%


00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:49.150 align:middle line:90%
Beauty proper and minor.

00:07:49.150 --> 00:07:53.700 align:middle line:84%
The private for profit
corrections company, Geo Group,

00:07:53.700 --> 00:07:57.480 align:middle line:84%
is publicly listed as a real
estate investment trust, which

00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:00.180 align:middle line:84%
has rewritten into
congressional record

00:08:00.180 --> 00:08:05.620 align:middle line:84%
the corporate definition
of land and ownership.

00:08:05.620 --> 00:08:08.560 align:middle line:84%
Due to circumstance
of things relating

00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:14.500 align:middle line:84%
to distance and removal
and access and interest,

00:08:14.500 --> 00:08:17.730 align:middle line:90%
beyond what words mean anyways.

00:08:17.730 --> 00:08:22.370 align:middle line:84%
The minor estate or
the longest road.

00:08:22.370 --> 00:08:27.410 align:middle line:84%
I am working on
getting my kids home.

00:08:27.410 --> 00:08:31.430 align:middle line:90%
None of this is in my own words.

00:08:31.430 --> 00:08:35.720 align:middle line:84%
I have not spoken
yet, but I'm looking.

00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:37.909 align:middle line:90%
Nonetheless, the wreckage.

00:08:37.909 --> 00:08:41.900 align:middle line:84%
The committee declares a
trembling, the unbroken vessel

00:08:41.900 --> 00:08:45.160 align:middle line:90%
of September.

00:08:45.160 --> 00:08:47.710 align:middle line:84%
Toward a text that
contains no solace,

00:08:47.710 --> 00:08:50.140 align:middle line:84%
let it live in
its own isolation,

00:08:50.140 --> 00:08:52.030 align:middle line:90%
in its own idea of isolation.

00:08:52.030 --> 00:08:56.830 align:middle line:84%
Let no image be spared in our
terrible imagination of it.

00:08:56.830 --> 00:08:59.710 align:middle line:84%
Risk assessment

of flight risk or
repeat offense.

00:09:11.230 --> 00:09:13.900 align:middle line:84%
It was morning when ICE
raided my brother's home

00:09:13.900 --> 00:09:15.250 align:middle line:90%
and detained him.

00:09:15.250 --> 00:09:18.010 align:middle line:84%
He is studying computer
science to design

00:09:18.010 --> 00:09:22.340 align:middle line:84%
more effective tracking
algorithms for Twitter.

00:09:22.340 --> 00:09:26.510 align:middle line:84%
CAP, criminal alien program,
has collapsed the avenues

00:09:26.510 --> 00:09:29.240 align:middle line:84%
of jurisdiction between
immigration enforcement

00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:32.480 align:middle line:90%
and criminal enforcement.

00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:38.870 align:middle line:84%
Quantifiable change that can be
documented, measured, funded,

00:09:38.870 --> 00:09:40.930 align:middle line:90%
to prove, to promise.

00:09:40.930 --> 00:09:44.570 align:middle line:90%


00:09:44.570 --> 00:09:46.660 align:middle line:90%
Keep the minor.

00:09:46.660 --> 00:09:48.430 align:middle line:90%
Hashtag abolish ICE.

00:09:48.430 --> 00:09:50.800 align:middle line:84%
Hashtag families
belong together.

00:09:50.800 --> 00:09:56.620 align:middle line:84%
Hashtag ACAB, hashtag two
households, hashtag both alike

00:09:56.620 --> 00:10:00.270 align:middle line:84%
in dignity, hashtag
in fair Verona.

00:10:00.270 --> 00:10:02.390 align:middle line:84%
They are alternate
forms of citizenship.

00:10:02.390 --> 00:10:05.060 align:middle line:90%

Poetry is stupid,

Per conditions of
release, my father

00:10:19.830 --> 00:10:24.360 align:middle line:84%
is required to answer a call
every third Sunday of the month

00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:29.610 align:middle line:84%
at exactly 8:00 AM and speak

every nuance

00:10:35.430 --> 00:10:37.560 align:middle line:90%

00:10:37.560 --> 00:10:41.640 align:middle line:84%
If his utterance does
not match, an agent

00:10:41.640 --> 00:10:43.950 align:middle line:90%
will be in touch shortly.

00:10:43.950 --> 00:10:48.660 align:middle line:84%
My father answers and says his
name slowly as if it's not his.

00:10:48.660 --> 00:10:51.830 align:middle line:90%


00:10:51.830 --> 00:10:54.020 align:middle line:84%
I googled our prisons
in California,

00:10:54.020 --> 00:10:55.970 align:middle line:84%
and Google suggests
if I'm looking

00:10:55.970 --> 00:10:59.270 align:middle line:84%
for best federal prisons
in California, four out

00:10:59.270 --> 00:11:01.550 align:middle line:90%
of five stars.

00:11:01.550 --> 00:11:05.300 align:middle line:84%
Googled the word rapt
and felt a sigh of relief

00:11:05.300 --> 00:11:07.940 align:middle line:84%
to see that it was
actually a word

00:11:07.940 --> 00:11:13.330 align:middle line:84%
and that I had actually
used it correctly.

00:11:13.330 --> 00:11:17.500 align:middle line:84%
In which the word, in the
absence of its bewilderment,

00:11:17.500 --> 00:11:20.380 align:middle line:90%
stripe after unforgiving stripe.

00:11:20.380 --> 00:11:22.450 align:middle line:90%
How in one hand the film.

00:11:22.450 --> 00:11:26.820 align:middle line:84%
In the other, the remedy,
and its derelict vision.

00:11:26.820 --> 00:11:32.350 align:middle line:84%
A nearby future, as if the
shape denies its circumstance,

00:11:32.350 --> 00:11:35.650 align:middle line:84%
we watch everything
burn as it should.

00:11:35.650 --> 00:11:37.570 align:middle line:90%
It burns as it should.

00:11:37.570 --> 00:11:38.830 align:middle line:90%
A trembling.

00:11:38.830 --> 00:11:41.920 align:middle line:90%
An easy way home.

00:11:41.920 --> 00:11:45.370 align:middle line:90%
Detained minor two, field notes.

00:11:45.370 --> 00:11:49.180 align:middle line:84%
I wish you could
bring better books.

00:11:49.180 --> 00:11:51.310 align:middle line:90%
Shoot out, like Big Jack.

00:11:51.310 --> 00:11:52.450 align:middle line:90%
It's a robbery.

00:11:52.450 --> 00:11:53.590 align:middle line:90%
It's taxes.

00:11:53.590 --> 00:11:56.260 align:middle line:90%
It's a story.

00:11:56.260 --> 00:12:02.360 align:middle line:84%
Redacted, in anticipation
of your spectral victimhood.

00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:06.575 align:middle line:84%
One clover, one
bee, and reverie."
