00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.930 align:middle line:90%


00:00:02.930 --> 00:00:03.430 align:middle line:90%
All right.

00:00:03.430 --> 00:00:04.210 align:middle line:90%
Something lighter.

00:00:04.210 --> 00:00:05.400 align:middle line:90%
Some sad divorce poems.

00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:09.610 align:middle line:90%


00:00:09.610 --> 00:00:10.730 align:middle line:90%
Being alive.

00:00:10.730 --> 00:00:13.370 align:middle line:90%
What a mess.

00:00:13.370 --> 00:00:18.040 align:middle line:84%
So this is titled "Sighting:
Virtue," River Gate Skate

00:00:18.040 --> 00:00:19.810 align:middle line:90%
Center, Nashville, Tennessee.

00:00:19.810 --> 00:00:22.390 align:middle line:90%


00:00:22.390 --> 00:00:25.000 align:middle line:84%
"The man in orbit blooms
a heart on his back.

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:26.830 align:middle line:90%
The heart blooms wings of water.

00:00:26.830 --> 00:00:31.060 align:middle line:84%
And in me rises not mercy,
but a sense of order.

00:00:31.060 --> 00:00:32.259 align:middle line:90%
I've drifted.

00:00:32.259 --> 00:00:34.120 align:middle line:84%
Loosed from the
one who bound me.

00:00:34.120 --> 00:00:36.190 align:middle line:90%
A planet with no anchoring star.

00:00:36.190 --> 00:00:39.190 align:middle line:84%
And I know this man is neither
God, nor sidereal body.

00:00:39.190 --> 00:00:42.850 align:middle line:84%
But neither is he a woman
with an alchemical heart.

00:00:42.850 --> 00:00:46.450 align:middle line:84%
His skin, his beard, his
full breast enrapture me.

00:00:46.450 --> 00:00:49.600 align:middle line:84%
Draw my gaze from every
other whirling body.

00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:50.560 align:middle line:90%
I've drifted.

00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:53.050 align:middle line:84%
And I know the man in orbit
is not a man in orbit,

00:00:53.050 --> 00:00:54.370 align:middle line:90%
but one in revolution.

00:00:54.370 --> 00:00:58.000 align:middle line:84%
Where revolution means
change or a way of moving.

00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.340 align:middle line:90%
Where muscle ripples to water.

00:01:00.340 --> 00:01:04.470 align:middle line:84%
Moves from a state of
gold to one of lead."
