00:00:02.340 --> 00:00:05.760 align:middle line:90%
This one is a--

00:00:05.760 --> 00:00:10.815 align:middle line:84%
this is a short poem entitled
"Wren: Three Mirrors."

00:00:10.815 --> 00:00:13.590 align:middle line:90%


00:00:13.590 --> 00:00:17.070 align:middle line:84%
Like waking in the
small room, looking out

00:00:17.070 --> 00:00:21.930 align:middle line:84%
seeing the moon almost
down, to the pale trees.

00:00:21.930 --> 00:00:25.050 align:middle line:84%
So then the incompletion
is waking also,

00:00:25.050 --> 00:00:28.200 align:middle line:84%
taking your shoulder
and now your hand,

00:00:28.200 --> 00:00:34.560 align:middle line:84%
beyond the past method, although
beyond is also a quarry.

00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:38.190 align:middle line:84%
There by that water,
which is also beyond,

00:00:38.190 --> 00:00:42.060 align:middle line:84%
two black wings turn
in their mirror,

00:00:42.060 --> 00:00:45.000 align:middle line:84%
the mirror the tree
makes above them,

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.930 align:middle line:84%
and then break with the
incomplete torture of the shade

00:00:48.930 --> 00:00:50.970 align:middle line:90%
descending.

00:00:50.970 --> 00:00:54.990 align:middle line:84%
But it doesn't matter,
the woman walks her attic,

00:00:54.990 --> 00:00:58.140 align:middle line:90%
reaches the house before you.

00:00:58.140 --> 00:01:02.100 align:middle line:84%
Why stop there, why
climb through the field

00:01:02.100 --> 00:01:06.660 align:middle line:84%
when field was just an attempt
to close off this silence,

00:01:06.660 --> 00:01:10.620 align:middle line:84%
to close, to say silence
I have missed you,

00:01:10.620 --> 00:01:14.540 align:middle line:84%
like a donkey on
fire, like a donkey.

00:01:14.540 --> 00:01:16.000 align:middle line:90%
