gabriel kahane - die traumdeutung lyrics
this time, i’m listening on the radio
the explosion, even on speakers
rattles my ribcage. there are screams
chaotic shouts, voices i think i know
or maybe i don’t, and then silence
this is the new age of anxiety
if i am a camera, i see three starfish in the bed
all of us dreaming, one of us too young
to have learned to dream in red
jump cut to a wide shot of the sky
three hundred million fists clenched tight
all these months i’ve slеpt
with a pencil tied onto my finger
thinking that it bring mе peace
but instead i find i’m left
with these photographs that only linger
after i write down what i’ve seen
after the silence, a change of scene. i’m
in some kind of safe house, having my
head shaved, being trained as an assassin
i think these images must spring
from the vault of action movies
i have stockpiled on sleepless nights, on
transatlantic flights over the ocean
for tours, a relic of an earlier age
when we sat in airport lounges drinking scotch
eating pretzels, watching cable news
oblivious to the mess that i was making for you
