We
talked
Truffaut
Jules et Jim
Gitane cigarettes
tobacco shreds the taste of France
I would like to be as cool as Jim but I'm English
melancholy bohemians
belong in Paris
I've failed there
even
in
black
We
talked
Godard
cinephiles
Breathless followers
ingénue students inspired
swept away by the new waves of Nouvelle Vague movies
sometimes still I think je suis Jim
I smell those Gitanes
jeu d'esprit
returns
in black
and
white
