THE SQUEAKING SCREEN
if you rewound reality
what kind of picture would you shape?
in this backward existence
we watch the memories we tape.
my retention can't compete with
anyone's aging vcr
and the colours i see flashing
on my screen are blurred from afar.
if you're into reality
on tv you might not find yours.
can you train a remote control
to be pressed through perception's doors?
looking back, everything seems to
move so fast. in hyper-speed,
we see into this backward world
as far as our records will read.
