Barn Song
de Gabriel Kahane
Kids don’t learn to write
Their cursive letters here anymore
Fingers more than nimble
And recall's in the frost
Oh, all these schools
Of lisping children
Singing rhymes to their dad
What of words in cracked communion?
Noble, silent, and bare
Come apart like needles
And we don’t know the names of
All these trees up on the island
Don’t they just look the same?
Why don’t you ever
Look up to the sky?
Windows are shuttered
You cover your eye
Don’t see a reason
For keeping in time
What of films of joseph cotten
Aangles shot from on high?
None of us remembers
The details of the plot, but
We found black and white romantic
Now you’re left with the thought
Why don’t you ever
Look up to the sky?
Windows are shuttered
You cover your eye
Don’t see a reason
For keeping in time
You’re always distracted
The devil in signs
