lyon, i love you but you’re bringing me down
a twin hearted-fool risks an expiration date
as we rummage through the aisle of the discounted food
bring milk to the cats who have not forgotten you
a row of boxes line the bus stop outside
homes for the wild, the mis-stepped and hewn
was i ever more feline, drawn on the back
of those transfer signs
in lyon, we saw light creak from the ceiling tiles
you with your two kids in the house where you grew
but i just keep my paws straight and my body new
a line on the web is how we communicate
but it’s been three months and i don’t know what to say
in lyon, we saw light creak from the ceiling tiles
