Ma, remember when we
waded into the form field

00:00:23.300 --> 00:00:26.970 align:middle line:84%
and pulled pussywillow
with inky palms,

00:00:26.970 --> 00:00:30.600 align:middle line:84%
Flicked buckeyes
into checklist boxes,

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:35.370 align:middle line:84%

We parceled our family
into placeholders

00:00:50.270 --> 00:00:53.630 align:middle line:84%
that September and huddled
in the warmth of an archive

00:00:53.630 --> 00:00:55.270 align:middle line:90%
set on fire
