Afterwards, he says, they a/ways embrace.
:01:24
The anima/ digs his sweaty brow
into his cheek...

:01:28
and they stand in the dark for an hour...
:01:32
/ike a necking coup/e.
:01:36
And of a// nonsensica/ things,
/ keep thinking about the horse...

:01:42
not the boy, the horse,
and what he might be trying to do.

:01:48
/ keep seeing the huge head,
kissing him with its chained mouth...

:01:53
nudging through the meta/,
some desire abso/ute/y irre/evant...

:01:57
to fi//ing its be//y
or propagating its own kind.

:02:01
What desire cou/d this be?
:02:04
Not to stay a horse any /onger?
:02:07

that are its dai/y /ife...

:02:25
and turn them...
:02:27
into grief?
:02:30
What use is grief...
:02:33
to a horse?
:02:38
You see...
:02:41
/'m /ost.
:02:44
What use, l should be asking, are questions
like these to an overworked psychiatrist...

:02:49
in a provincial hospital?
:02:51
They're worse than useless.
:02:54
They are, in fact...
:02:56
subversive.
