Chicago from Limerence by Paul Soupiset

yesterday’s a canceled check
a yellow faded paper sunset
tomorrow’s just a promissory note
to borrow from the promises spoken
today’s a 20 pressed inside my palm
to be spent and gone before too long

walking in any other town
no lakeshore drive, no eiderdown
tell me: do you still love this place
appreciating your chicago

shotgun brownstone past the campus quad
you lived alone and contemplated god
insulated waiting for a proof
never wishing to defend the truth
your words and walls identical in style
painted with that cheap sarcastic smile

walking out with a a prayer for you
please give me back your point of view
tell me do you still love this place
appreciating your chicago
(for the love)
