Nine.

00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:10.200 align:middle line:84%
Tearing but not yet torn,
this page the long late winter

00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:13.800 align:middle line:84%
rage, wild rain
on the windshield,

00:00:13.800 --> 00:00:19.140 align:middle line:84%
clenched stems unyielding
sticks of maple birch,

00:00:19.140 --> 00:00:25.260 align:middle line:84%
bleached grass, the range
of things resisting change,

00:00:25.260 --> 00:00:28.620 align:middle line:84%
and this is how I
am and this is how

00:00:28.620 --> 00:00:33.870 align:middle line:84%
you are when we resist
the charmers open sesame,

00:00:33.870 --> 00:00:37.680 align:middle line:84%
the thief's light
fingered touch staying

00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:42.600 align:middle line:84%
closed because we will
not give ourselves away

00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:46.140 align:middle line:84%
until the agent,
the manipulator,

00:00:46.140 --> 00:00:52.500 align:middle line:84%
the false toucher has
left and it is May.
