The speaker mentions cities, a theatre and a movie bigger than the viewer, then recalls a father taking the speaker to an old-fashioned screen. Handwritten revisions add a theatre closing and REAL MOViE, and the close says IT was not a dream.

The speaker presents the remembered screen as something other than a dream. This is the speaker's claim, not verification of an event in the writer's childhood. The revised theatre and movie passage still needs a placement check.

The page says 'I have been to some cities', with handwritten 'WhEN thE ThEATrE cAME to A cLOSE', 'They don't have a REAL / MOViE, I guess that / dosen't tell anybody / anything', and recalls 'When my Dad took me to an old fashioned / screen' and 'IT was not a dream'.

The typed draft and its handwritten revisions both reach for a lost kind of movie-going. The memory is the speaker's own account, and the order of the crowded revision remains uncertain.
