Gitanes

Neville

Gitanes

 

the light there was

exquisite ..

a bit like Florence

the sun was

always overhead ..

still, it was

time for him to go ..

she really

wanted ice-cream

but instead,

they both shared

one last

French cigarette ..

before he

hit that road again ..

          they were markedly different weren't they .. a bit like my good self actually ..

        • sorenbarrett

          Errotic yet as ephemeral as that smoke from the cigarette while the noir feel seems to linger long after. Very nicely done Neville
