Gymnopedie No 1
so this, 0:01
is how,
it feels,
to be, 0:09
at rope's end, 0:11
where I thought,
I had first formed. 0:18
.
start at, 0:20
the end,
where it,
began, 0:28
no beginning, 0:30
thus thinks, I have no end,
no more dichotomies for me, 0:44
free to be, 0:51
everywhere,
here and there,
no point, 1:00
there's no top, 1:03
or bottom,
there's no left,
or right, 1:16
released, 1:17
from,
countless aims,
that propose,
thoughts distinct, 1:31
that exist, 1:32
occasions, 1:34
gauge, not, 1:39
want not,
end not,
start not, 1:50
challenging, 1:51
measure,
just ask,
or request,
the boxless,
wanderer,
the answer comes,
the answer goes, 2:11
there's a directive, 2:13
that I'll attend,
I'll progress,
I'll succeed,
and ascend,
a righteous claim, 2:31
doers are doing, 2:34
and
doing are doers, 2:45
nothing's different, 2:47
subjects are objects,
same similarities, 3:00
tis fate had prepared my table for me, 3:13
number's up, knell rung, 3:17
my Supper at Last, 3:21
... begins! 3:25
