Last Hours in Paris


Huuuuge glasses, like beacons in the night.

This lady!

This is the bar where I opened my mouth and a sentence later they were all laughing because 'She talks like an arab!!!' Momma Brenz is proud.



One time, I made lisa take me to montmartre mere hours before my plane took off.

OK, she said, but let me buy your train ticket to the airport first.

I am A Tourist.

OK, says I. Sounds good. I shuffle around in my pockets, thumbing old, used tickets, as Lisa buys the new one.

Hold on to this, she says. Don't drop it.

I take the ticket.

She carte oranges and motions me to follow, as I no longer have a carte orange.

I drop the real ticket and put the used ones back in my pocket.

And we go to montmartre.
