Syrian Dreams Project #05 - Untitled (2011)

Name: Ghaith Adib
Date: July 26, 2011


Damn it! When I began writing, the electricity cut off... Everything I wrote is gone. But I will write the dream again.

I am in Beirut and in Beirut in the metro, but the metro line is very heavy, it goes down to the water at times and it is like roller coaster in a water park...
The buses there look like the ones we have, but they don't have doors and they drive on roads that are affiliated with the metro, meaning they look like golf cars... anyway I am riding one of them and its very rough because they are fast - and they have no safety belt so I remain scared that I fall in the water.
Sitting at the train station with a group of people and I am looking to my left and I find all of sudden the display screen for arrival times and the like, it shortcircuited and sparks came out of it... so I tell myself what the hell go and short-circuit the display screen above us also... I look above and I don't find one above us because we are at the very end of the station almost and to my right the trains are standing and above me in the ceiling I can only see the sky if I look above to the right...

Slanted I am riding the metro and going to my friend's home in Beirut with a group of people that I know... me and my friend change our seat every now and then and we go backwards... I hear someone (a woman) screaming as if she's an alarm: we are about to drown, we are about to drown - we are about to drown... I found at the end of the metro water on the floor... because it descended on the water (like I mentioned before the metro in Beirut is like a roller coaster in water), so I am telling her no need to scream it is normal - it descends like this - it is international and the like... she stares and says: smoke smoke smoke (but I was hearing her we are drowning)... I find a slightly old woman smoking a cigarette so I tell her there is no need to smoke in the metro and that this woman... Oh God let it go.

A while later I sit in a place and I find on the table (yes there is a table in the metro) stickers and little bags that has something like mobile phone chains, their colour is more of bronze and very pretty and I remember one of those chains look like a dragon fly... anyway the metro is almost empty and there remains me, my friend and two girls - they look very nice, from our mood (style, hair, attire, even one was putting one of those nice bone glasses) anyway from our mood so they came to me - and I am playing with the stickers that look as if someone forgot them... they told me to give them specific stickers... or they are asking me if I have some of the stickers for them... I tell them come and look which ones you want... so they come a bit... and I am telling myself that by God this is good, maybe we become friends considering I don't know many people in Lebanon - and they look nice... but unfortunately they turn out to be complicated and they treat me as if I work for them or I am selling those stickers... because after they come a bit with me and I am showing them different stickers they tell me take a list of stickers names that we want and get them... so I tell them that I don't know them all, you can take them all and pick the ones you want... .so one of them tells me in a very nasty manner... that, no dude, we will not take them all... because... huh... we have no place in the bag.
Anyway I at that time am completely engrossed with them... and I am not paying attention to the road and I am relying on my friend to observe the road... I find him distracted and I look to the road and I find that we are at Jermana....I was bummed that man what if we want to go back now and he tells me its fine the metro will not pass Jermana and that it will turn and go back to Beirut... and the talk goes that he is saying the metro will not pass by the president square and I am telling him that it looks like it will pass.....the metro turns and it passes from halfway from the president's square almost almost in front of the statue... and I awake.
