00:00:00.780 --> 00:00:03.870 align:middle line:90%
Dieting city, or starving city.

00:00:03.870 --> 00:00:05.760 align:middle line:90%
It's hard to tell.

00:00:05.760 --> 00:00:10.560 align:middle line:84%
For one thing, it's dark and
for another, I feel inadequate.

00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:16.320 align:middle line:84%
My perpetual motion has ceased
to amuse anyone here I confide.

00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:19.770 align:middle line:84%
Even though I wore a
beautiful skirt of red silk,

00:00:19.770 --> 00:00:22.650 align:middle line:84%
and when I whirled you
could see everything.

00:00:22.650 --> 00:00:25.350 align:middle line:84%
The river with its
captured lights.

00:00:25.350 --> 00:00:27.090 align:middle line:90%
The glint of bridges.

00:00:27.090 --> 00:00:30.960 align:middle line:84%
The pockmarked
Palisades of flame.

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:33.750 align:middle line:90%
So much of this is untrue.

00:00:33.750 --> 00:00:36.750 align:middle line:84%
A worm slunk in the
sidewalk cracks.

00:00:36.750 --> 00:00:41.160 align:middle line:84%
An old, old woman wreathed
in snot spoke sharply.

00:00:41.160 --> 00:00:44.610 align:middle line:84%
She said, "Just
because you give me $5,

00:00:44.610 --> 00:00:47.500 align:middle line:84%
don't entitle you
to my life story."
