Dein Zug!

„Mein Zug kommt“, verabschiede ich mich und beiße mir auf die Zunge, dass mir keine dümmere Ausrede eingefallen ist, um dem langweiligen Gespräch zu entkommen. „Welcher Zug?“, fragt mein Gegenüber, „glauben Sie an fahrende Züge? An den Storch glauben Sie wohl auch noch.“ Ich drehe mich um und gehe unentschuldigt. Da schwebt eine Dieselwolke vom Himmel herab und entbindet einen Regionalzug, der Folgendes zu mir spricht:

Du hast mich mächtig angezogen / an meiner Sphäre lang gesogen. / Da bin ich! – Welch erbärmlich Grauen / fasst Fahrgast dich! Wo bleibt der Freudenruf / zu dem die Deutsche Bahn dich einst erschuf? / Bist du es, der von meinem Rauch umwittert / in Altmetallwaggons das Land durchzittert, / ein wie Verkehrswege gekrümmter Wurm? / Auf Ausfallplänen, im Lügensturm / fahr ich hin und her, / schlaf ich ein und aus! / Im Durchsagen-Lügenmeer / und in deiner Phantasie zu Haus. / Ein wechselndes Fehlen / ein Zeit-und-Geld-Stehlen / so schlaf ich auf dem Webstuhl der Zeit / als Gottes mobile Unsichtbarkeit!

Aber ich seh schon: Klassik tröstet dich auch nicht. Dauerkarteninhaber, du dauerst mich. „Host dem Auto abgeschworn, hot sich’s fia di ausgefohrn.“ Ist noch vom Andi, dem alten Verkehrsmistbauer. Der neue kann gar kein Bayerisch, ich frag mich, wie der das CSU-Wahlprogramm fehlerfrei abschreiben konnte. Aber ich merk schon, Politik ist auch nicht so deins. Du reist gerne? Ja, das ist grad schlecht. Die Zeiten haben gewendet, weißt du: U-Turn gemacht und weg. Überall Vergangenheit. Aktuell ist Verweilen angesagt. Wie viele deutsche Bahnhöfe kennst du überhaupt? Behauptet, ich würde nirgends mehr fahren, und belegt seine Behauptung mit fünf bis sieben Heimatbahnhöfen. Da beleg ich jedes Gleis wahrscheinlicher als der die Tatsache meines Nichtvorhandenseins. Man kommt schließlich mit dem Fahrrad auch zum Bahnhof. Einfach mal Fresse halten und die Bahnhöfe des Heimatlands abradeln! Ich könnt grad neidisch werden, ich weiß gar nimmer, wie ihr ausschaut, ihr stillen Guten allüberall.

Trotzdem sage ich: Garage ist besser. In der Garage geht nichts kaputt. Also nicht, weil nichts mehr ganz wär. Sondern, weil da ganz andere Bedingungen herrschen. Garagen sind die Bodenhaltung der Fahrzeuge. Ein Fahrzeugwohllabel ist meines Wissings schon im parlamentarischen Verfahren. O Gott, das klingt so nach „Fahren“ …! Nee, langsam, die Mehrheit kommt zu Stande, read it from my screen. Immer bloß die Tierarten werden gerettet – wir Züge sterben auch aus! Der landesweite Museumsstatus muss jetzt kommen und dann darf kein Weiß- oder Schwarzfahrer mehr in uns fahren dürfen. Dann muss jeder stehend von der Bahnsteigkante Abstand halten müssen, und zwar von uns. Da kann es keine zwei Meinungen mehr geben und am besten gar keine mehr. Nur noch die Lautsprecherdurchsage auf dem Bahnsteig. Reicht doch. Was für die Deutsche Bahn gut ist, kann für Deutschland nicht schlecht sein. STOP STOP STOP = Deutschlands Galopp!

Ach komm, jetzt ist er mir eingeschlafen, der Fahrgast. Na den werd ich wecken. Der wird vor seinem fahrplanmäßig erwarteten Zug noch mal einschlafen! Ganz leise alles Liebe ins Ohr geflüstert:

Dein Zug!

Schachmatt!! – – – Ääh. – Wiebittewass??

Sorry. Ist mir noch nie passiert: In der eigenen Kolumne eingeschlafen! Peinlich.

Aber was hatte ich auch für einen süßen Traum! Einen Schach–Traum. Grad hatte ich einem rot-gelb-grünen König Matt IN EINEM ZUG angesagt …
