no animal was harmed during the making of this video. not one. for the few minutes that we were shooting film, the guns of each hunter fell silent. the industrial bolt throwers observed a moment's peace and the jaws of every predator hung softly open. no fish bit any hook and the bait worms held off on drowning only until the cameras stopped. the tails of ruminants ceased to flick just as their attendant flies, in unison, landed on their flanks to catch their tiny breaths. a spider instantly stopped winding silk around a wasp, patiently waiting for the caesura to end. a young veterinarian paused with the syringe in their hand. somewhere, a colicky baby stopped biting its mother's nipple and nursed happily for the very first time. we're sorry. we're sorry it couldn't have been longer. we didn't know this would happen.

Cut-up Poetry 4
I had a bird in spring - It is flown - The skies are crowded -
Let us chant it softly - The lips at Hallelujah, And be mute, again.

Cut up Poetry 3
Frequently Frequently I ponder Frequently
Sleep
Sanity The shutting of the eye
Death
Barbed syllables keep their secrets... My "Classics" veil their faces...

Today is far from childhood Be sure you count − Should I forget
My figures fail to tell me Wherever ran the breathless sun

Cut-up Poetry 1.
Arrange the stars; put up the sunshine; There is another sky, And there is another sunshine,
Mortality Has passed beyond the moon, Ever serene and fair, Sailing silently.
Good bye, Sir, I am going. A coward will remain, Sir. But an immortal hero Will take his hat, and run!
And come away with me, Who first observed the moon!
Never mind silent fields Never mind faded forests, Until the fight is done;
Then, farewell, and farewell.
Cut-up from Emily Dickinson The Complete Poems
