even the cats

the laughter ended last time

i saw you

 

 

when you whisked away

to Brixton Station

 

 

amidst

red carriage engine roar,

 

 

and i hobbled home

from bus-stop over cracked

 

 

concrete

like Cinderella, after ball,

 

 

all disjointed

and asymmetric

 

 

with time

somewhat out of synch,

 

 

i love you Jaci,

and if we’re allowed to begin

 

 

our lives together

with fondness and fun,  

 

 

as

lovers should,  

 

 

 

 

i’ll even

love your cats
