You Never Give Me That Much Affection

I found this in the lower branches of a bush in heart of Milwaukee’s East Side. My first reaction was a gut-busting laugh followed by a moment of puzzlement. For the most part, this meaning of this find is pretty clear-cut: she hates the cat. Yet I am baffled by the sudden interjection of “You never give me that much affection.” Does she want to be peed on? Is she yearning for this guy to mark his territory? I’m not sure any of us will have the answer.
