Ernest Heraklion-Corfu Thessaloniki
spent ten years in Lyon, selling coffee and tea
he was forced to swap the francophone fog
for the healthy delights of the Athenian smog
it was bad enough being laid off without any thanks
and, as if his finances weren’t already quite rough
it got worse, finding they hadn’t paid him enough
meaning there were about a thousand francs
owed to a Grecian Ern.
