Jan Škrob: our memory / naše paměť

our memory

during exercises with light
i imagine relationships
like arteries in the body
i stack tables
singing words
in a language
that no one has known for a long time

everything is coming together
into layers of other voices
i catch it in flashes
a ship that's wrecked
off the coast
the beginning of a journey
i know where i am i can feel the surf

our memory is colour
caught in stone
something still
is set in motion
i feel the surf
gusts of wind
the tables shake heavily

we're getting back to the subject
of pain but differently
it's the power of the voice
our memories are places
where the sea
passes through our bodies
sand presses against the waves

 


 

naše paměť

při cvičeních se světlem
si představuju vztahy
jako tepny v těle
skládám na sebe stoly
zpívám slova
v jazyce který
už dávno nikdo nezná

všechno se mi spojuje
do vrstev dalších hlasů
chytám to v záblescích
loď která ztroskotala
u pobřeží
začátek cesty
vím kde jsem cítím příboj

naše paměť je barva
zachycená v kameni
něco nehybného
se dává do pohybu
cítím příboj
nárazy větru
stoly se ztěžka chvějí

vracíme se k tématu
bolesti ale jinak
je to v síle hlasu
naše paměť jsou místa
kde nám moře
prochází tělem
písek se tiskne k vlnám
