00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.780 align:middle line:90%


00:00:00.780 --> 00:00:03.166 align:middle line:90%
Instructions to Four Walls.

00:00:03.166 --> 00:00:07.140 align:middle line:90%


00:00:07.140 --> 00:00:10.470 align:middle line:84%
Now, one of you turn this
way, just as you are.

00:00:10.470 --> 00:00:14.520 align:middle line:84%
Woman and girl all these years,
speaking another language

00:00:14.520 --> 00:00:16.379 align:middle line:90%
as the Earth does.

00:00:16.379 --> 00:00:20.160 align:middle line:84%
And open your eyes with
the wall inside them--

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:23.100 align:middle line:90%
doubled, but going away.

00:00:23.100 --> 00:00:25.320 align:middle line:90%
Getting smaller and smaller.

00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:27.720 align:middle line:90%
But don't you move.

00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:30.720 align:middle line:84%
See how long it takes
for me to appear there--

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:34.590 align:middle line:84%
and how old I am then,
and how old I've been--

00:00:34.590 --> 00:00:36.490 align:middle line:90%
if you can tell.

00:00:36.490 --> 00:00:39.330 align:middle line:84%
But don't put on
anything special for me.

00:00:39.330 --> 00:00:42.240 align:middle line:84%
I want to see you as
you are every day--

00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:46.716 align:middle line:90%
as you see me, without my name.

00:00:46.716 --> 00:00:51.270 align:middle line:84%
The one of you whose turn it
is to follow me like a dog,

00:00:51.270 --> 00:00:54.090 align:middle line:84%
don't be the dog who's
stolen something.

00:00:54.090 --> 00:00:56.190 align:middle line:90%
Don't be the dead dog.

00:00:56.190 --> 00:01:00.780 align:middle line:84%
Don't be the lost dog, the
sick dog, the watch dog.

00:01:00.780 --> 00:01:03.660 align:middle line:84%
Be the good brown dog that
ran through both families

00:01:03.660 --> 00:01:05.760 align:middle line:90%
till you found me.

00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:11.250 align:middle line:84%
Be happy to see the back of
my head just where it is.

00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:13.260 align:middle line:90%
And one of you be the sea--

00:01:13.260 --> 00:01:18.000 align:middle line:84%
starting right there,
older than words or water.

00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.330 align:middle line:84%
Opening into itself
forward and backward.

00:01:21.330 --> 00:01:25.680 align:middle line:84%
Each wave lying still with a
piece of horizon in its arms.

00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:30.300 align:middle line:84%
One sail going, one
sail coming, two wings

00:01:30.300 --> 00:01:33.840 align:middle line:90%
approaching each other.

00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:40.110 align:middle line:84%
And one of you stay still just
as you are with your door.

00:01:40.110 --> 00:01:42.000 align:middle line:90%
Be yesterday.

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.860 align:middle line:90%
Be tomorrow.

00:01:43.860 --> 00:01:44.370 align:middle line:90%
Be today.

00:01:44.370 --> 00:01:47.070 align:middle line:90%


00:01:47.070 --> 00:01:49.520 align:middle line:90%
[APPLAUSE]

00:01:49.520 --> 00:01:54.000 align:middle line:90%
