cats and cats and cats - jestyn lyrics
we met, the sky winked in the eye of the bombs
in café taman shud, autumn ’41
and i watched your lips move in a nurse uniform
as we shared the one drink and before you moved off
slipped me the rubaiyak of omar kahyyam
i sat there a while after you’d gone
reciting his words while my whole body sang
oh jestyn, i knew
first on the redheaded donnerstag noon
when i, though i hardly knew
dipped into your soul, that dark hemlock spool
“oh threats of h+ll, hopes of paradise
there is one thing that’s certain + this life flies
one thing is certain and the rest of it lies
the flower once blown forever dies”
oh jestyn, i knew
first on the redheaded donnerstag noon
when i, though i hardly knew
dipped into your soul, that dark hemlock spool
as i moved from that place i kept hidden that verse
deep in my pocket; a tangible curse
a totem symbolic of enduring love
which fortold that day my eventual death
i would carry like poison throughout the years
’til i’m found on a beach having drawn my last breath
oh jestyn, i knew
first on the redheaded donnerstag noon
when i, though i hardly knew
dipped into your soul, that dark hemlock spool
