Tears of sweat do keep cool tempers tamped and three buttons breach leaves a Mountain Dew breathless. Cries of joy. Tears of rain. Sing a song. Trains on time. Track nine. Chattanooga choo-choo.
Thanks Jill - can't take credit for the photograph unfortunately - that's a stock image - but the poem is based on a memory of standing on that very platform, when I lived in Pigalle, back in the days before phones had cameras!

Enjoying the mix of french and English...and the visuals.
