00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:04.320 align:middle line:90%
All right.

00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:09.180 align:middle line:84%
This next one's called
"Poem Unanimous."

00:00:09.180 --> 00:00:11.490 align:middle line:84%
Believe it or not, it
came about after losing

00:00:11.490 --> 00:00:13.830 align:middle line:90%
one of my favorite socks.

00:00:13.830 --> 00:00:17.610 align:middle line:84%
One half of my
favorite pair of socks.

00:00:17.610 --> 00:00:20.850 align:middle line:84%
And at the end of the day, thank
you [LAUGHS] for that incident.

00:00:20.850 --> 00:00:25.380 align:middle line:84%
I'm still looking for it, but
it's left a poem in its place.

00:00:25.380 --> 00:00:27.030 align:middle line:90%
[CHUCKLES]

00:00:27.030 --> 00:00:30.660 align:middle line:90%
OK, "Poem Unanimous."

00:00:30.660 --> 00:00:35.720 align:middle line:84%
"Perhaps it's hiding beneath
a bed somewhere in Montevideo,

00:00:35.720 --> 00:00:41.030 align:middle line:84%
or maybe it fled deep into a
dark tunnel's clandestine suck,

00:00:41.030 --> 00:00:44.870 align:middle line:84%
equipped with closed circuit
television, central heating

00:00:44.870 --> 00:00:46.310 align:middle line:90%
and air.

00:00:46.310 --> 00:00:49.160 align:middle line:84%
Who knows where it went
is what I'm saying,

00:00:49.160 --> 00:00:53.570 align:middle line:84%
standing guard at Buckingham
Palace, tall, black, furry hat,

00:00:53.570 --> 00:00:56.660 align:middle line:84%
you know the kind,
mummed up for tourists,

00:00:56.660 --> 00:00:59.330 align:middle line:84%
imperialism
personified, straight

00:00:59.330 --> 00:01:01.850 align:middle line:90%
as a Ticonderoga pencil.

00:01:01.850 --> 00:01:05.030 align:middle line:84%
Or maybe it's riding a Vespa
against oncoming traffic

00:01:05.030 --> 00:01:08.510 align:middle line:84%
up Hollywood Boulevard,
nursing a slight bender, saggy

00:01:08.510 --> 00:01:11.200 align:middle line:90%
paunch, and red faced.

00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:13.060 align:middle line:84%
If you hear from
that damn navy blue

00:01:13.060 --> 00:01:17.500 align:middle line:84%
sock gone missing from my
drawer, tell it I've moved on.

00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:21.220 align:middle line:84%
Bought an '81 Chrysler,
went to the movies,

00:01:21.220 --> 00:01:24.010 align:middle line:84%
built a rocket ship out
of Nestor's hydro supplies

00:01:24.010 --> 00:01:26.080 align:middle line:90%
and three gallons of glue.

00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:28.810 align:middle line:84%
Tell it I've opened a
tortillería on Mount Everest's

00:01:28.810 --> 00:01:31.120 align:middle line:84%
summit point where
we've assembled

00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:33.940 align:middle line:84%
a metropolis of beefy
mariachis to usher

00:01:33.940 --> 00:01:35.830 align:middle line:84%
in the resurrection
of large scale

00:01:35.830 --> 00:01:38.950 align:middle line:90%
resistance in the key of C.

00:01:38.950 --> 00:01:42.580 align:middle line:84%
Tell it I ate a map
of the United States,

00:01:42.580 --> 00:01:45.850 align:middle line:84%
rolled it up, digested its
entire settler colonial

00:01:45.850 --> 00:01:48.520 align:middle line:84%
history in one swallow, then
excreted the whole shebang

00:01:48.520 --> 00:01:53.560 align:middle line:84%
in a single whiff, outer
space into the fifth dimension

00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:56.960 align:middle line:84%
to enable us to move on,
and begin again, though no,

00:01:56.960 --> 00:02:00.730 align:middle line:84%
don't never ever
permitted to forget.

00:02:00.730 --> 00:02:03.310 align:middle line:84%
Who knows where it
went, they'll say.

00:02:03.310 --> 00:02:06.910 align:middle line:84%
But of the darkness, some great
light will ready its wings

00:02:06.910 --> 00:02:11.540 align:middle line:84%
and stretch wide in the
very absence of the thing.

00:02:11.540 --> 00:02:16.920 align:middle line:84%
New beginnings, where our feet
resemble warm, tender clocks.

00:02:16.920 --> 00:02:19.440 align:middle line:84%
New beginnings,
where our feet are

00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:21.930 align:middle line:84%
loved beyond the
grizzly foundation

00:02:21.930 --> 00:02:25.130 align:middle line:84%
that once promised
to engulf them."
