00:00:06.610 --> 00:00:08.020 align:middle line:90%
You're all right?

00:00:08.020 --> 00:00:13.720 align:middle line:90%


00:00:13.720 --> 00:00:16.360 align:middle line:84%
There's a lot of poems in here
that I should definitely not

00:00:16.360 --> 00:00:21.000 align:middle line:84%
read, but this poem
is called "Arshile."

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:28.440 align:middle line:84%
And Arshile is the first name
of the painter Arshile Gorky.

00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:32.320 align:middle line:84%
And I was looking
at some work of his.

00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:35.120 align:middle line:90%
"Arshile."

00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:36.720 align:middle line:90%
I wonder if I'm the only sucker

00:00:36.720 --> 00:00:39.920 align:middle line:84%
On the verge of
tears here in Soho

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:42.040 align:middle line:84%
I think I figured
out you never figured

00:00:42.040 --> 00:00:44.760 align:middle line:84%
Out what you were
doing & that intensity

00:00:44.760 --> 00:00:46.720 align:middle line:84%
Of not knowing but
having still to

00:00:46.720 --> 00:00:49.480 align:middle line:84%
Present in certainty
is a little bit of

00:00:49.480 --> 00:00:51.240 align:middle line:90%
What I love.

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:52.520 align:middle line:90%
This time I think I

00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:55.320 align:middle line:84%
See you seeing
out from the paint

00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:58.640 align:middle line:84%
& I would say it's
too much, but I'm

00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:02.040 align:middle line:84%
Sitting on a street
And have ripped my

00:01:02.040 --> 00:01:04.280 align:middle line:84%
Surface into the
foreground, so as to

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:06.640 align:middle line:84%
Hopefully, die on
terms I at least might

00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:08.800 align:middle line:90%
Begin to utter.

00:01:08.800 --> 00:01:10.080 align:middle line:90%
I got to see your work

00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:11.960 align:middle line:84%
Because it's 100
years since you came

00:01:11.960 --> 00:01:13.960 align:middle line:90%
To this town, & somebody decided

00:01:13.960 --> 00:01:16.560 align:middle line:90%
To honor your decision.

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:17.360 align:middle line:90%
That's a whole

00:01:17.360 --> 00:01:20.052 align:middle line:90%
Lot of bullshit, & bulls every

00:01:20.052 --> 00:01:22.080 align:middle line:90%
Where may be puzzled.

00:01:22.080 --> 00:01:22.880 align:middle line:90%
See again

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:24.680 align:middle line:84%
How we come back
to the perspective

00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:26.440 align:middle line:90%
Of animals?

00:01:26.440 --> 00:01:27.960 align:middle line:90%
Feeling the fear of coming

00:01:27.960 --> 00:01:31.680 align:middle line:84%
Forward, reduced
to being figures.

00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.760 align:middle line:84%
I love someone nearby
but I can't tell

00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:36.480 align:middle line:90%
Them you're here.

00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:37.480 align:middle line:90%
The last thing I

00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:39.990 align:middle line:90%
Want is to be believed.

00:01:39.990 --> 00:01:41.000 align:middle line:90%
