Dare Not Dive

You were right about The Departed
But you’re wrong about The History Boys
I was wrong
About the painting of a ski slope
It reminds me of your insolent poise
A citadel that we imagined
Can’t climb inside
It floats like airport information
I want to drown but I dare not dive
Up at midnight
Watching Arthur Russell
With his cello buzzing by his side
Bas Jan Ader
Hanging from the branches as he falls and he cries
A citadel that we imagined
Can’t climb inside
It floats like airport information
I want to drown but I dare not dive
You were right
You were right
