00:00:00.810 --> 00:00:02.520 align:middle line:90%
Six.

00:00:02.520 --> 00:00:05.700 align:middle line:90%
"Awaking."

00:00:05.700 --> 00:00:08.520 align:middle line:84%
"In the pleasant dream,
I rock in the pool

00:00:08.520 --> 00:00:11.100 align:middle line:90%
from the yellow lamp.

00:00:11.100 --> 00:00:15.630 align:middle line:84%
In my lap, the book of poems
and the cat with striped mask

00:00:15.630 --> 00:00:18.840 align:middle line:90%
and striped stockings, warm.

00:00:18.840 --> 00:00:21.180 align:middle line:90%
And the dark beyond, still.

00:00:21.180 --> 00:00:26.880 align:middle line:84%
But for the whippoorwill at
9 o'clock, the world of bats.

00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:32.189 align:middle line:84%
Here the cat's purr stirs
the silence into small waves.

00:00:32.189 --> 00:00:36.720 align:middle line:84%
Your face emerging, indistinct,
among the yellow daisies

00:00:36.720 --> 00:00:39.510 align:middle line:90%
in the brown jar wakes.

00:00:39.510 --> 00:00:44.880 align:middle line:84%
Moves me, under the weight of
memory and the loss tomorrow.

00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:51.540 align:middle line:84%
To the open door, down the long
mown meadow, to find myself

00:00:51.540 --> 00:00:56.790 align:middle line:84%
reduced to this crabbed,
scratching, under soil.

00:00:56.790 --> 00:01:01.985 align:middle line:84%
For the word difficult
enough to be your name."
