00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.640 align:middle line:90%


00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:01.140 align:middle line:90%
Bed.

00:00:01.140 --> 00:00:05.080 align:middle line:90%


00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:11.840 align:middle line:84%
You have to understand
there was no noon, no down,

00:00:11.840 --> 00:00:14.960 align:middle line:90%
Time past, day turned to night,

00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:17.840 align:middle line:90%
I woke and slept, I drank,

00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:21.440 align:middle line:90%
I ate a bit, I slept,

00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:23.520 align:middle line:90%
There were few nouns,

00:00:23.520 --> 00:00:24.920 align:middle line:90%
They wouldn't connect,

00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:27.880 align:middle line:90%
I didn't know fan,

00:00:27.880 --> 00:00:33.520 align:middle line:84%
I kept kicking off the blankets
and pulling off my clothes,

00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:35.560 align:middle line:90%
The people came and went,

00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:38.800 align:middle line:84%
I didn't know now, I
couldn't find the latches

00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:41.080 align:middle line:84%
and every few hours,
I found myself

00:00:41.080 --> 00:00:46.520 align:middle line:84%
at baseline, staccato
returned to tonic,

00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:51.600 align:middle line:84%
The light moved through its
stations soft white, blur white,

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:59.080 align:middle line:84%
buzz white, white white, cream
white, cream, tan, black,

00:00:59.080 --> 00:01:04.080 align:middle line:84%
My dreams were flickers,
my days were smears,

00:01:04.080 --> 00:01:07.080 align:middle line:84%
I slept in a mechanical
bed three feet

00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:13.000 align:middle line:90%
in the air time and more time,

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:17.440 align:middle line:84%
The questions were confusing,
I answered in song lyrics

00:01:17.440 --> 00:01:20.200 align:middle line:90%
and scraps of poetry,

00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.640 align:middle line:90%
$29 and an alligator purse,

00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:29.880 align:middle line:84%
It would have been funny except
for the yelling and the fear,

00:01:29.880 --> 00:01:33.720 align:middle line:84%
The mind that didn't work,
the leg that wouldn't move,

00:01:33.720 --> 00:01:37.800 align:middle line:84%
The people who should
have arrived, but didn't,

00:01:37.800 --> 00:01:41.940 align:middle line:84%
I pitched fits, cried
jags, hair triggered,

00:01:41.940 --> 00:01:45.520 align:middle line:90%
It was neurological, endless,

00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:48.880 align:middle line:90%
Finally, they knocked me out,

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:51.070 align:middle line:90%
They clocked me.

00:01:51.070 --> 00:01:52.000 align:middle line:90%
