Juste un billet où tu m'écrisque tu part à l'aut' bout d'la terretu disparais sans penser nià ton vieux partenaireni,
pire encore,à prendre ton passeportquand j'étais gamin au camp scoutj'détestais les jeux de pistemais à tes trousses en avant toutepuisque le jeu consisteà rattrapermon amour échappéprends tes jambes à ton coule train pour Tombouctoulà où tu passeslaisse pas la moindre tracechnage d'adresse,
change de nomépouse un laponteins-toi en brunefuis sur la luneet même comme ça tu s'ras pasdébarrassée de moij'ouvrirais bien sûr la cage situ te sentais prisonnièrej'tournerais bien sû
