While Rereading Your Letter (En relisant ta lettre)
While rereading your letter I became aware
That writing and you are not a good pair
It’s you I love
Apostrophe above
Don't say that there’s
A full-stop
It's missing one
That you don't care
I’m begging you
Please dot the I
For clear answers
I am the slave
That should be A
To appearances
It's comical
That’s Capital
That it’s been so nice
To some effect (Tout ça m'affecte)
In French, correct
If in the extreme
You renounce
Like it’s pronounced
Listening to me
This life itself
That’s how it's spelt
Can finish here
To bear ill-will
Two double L’s
With such venom
You are a snake there's no mistake
There's one right there
I’ll have died of this
This is not English
Do you understand ?
You got it wrong, you got it wrong
Well, you didn’t there
I'll teach you yet
That barbituarate
Doesn't have an O
But just take one
And seal the rest
No don’t take two
As you decompress
You’ll see it’s best
That we’re apart
The blues, the tears
The heartache years
With an E in the heart
