Some of these poems appeared in my Cette guêpe me regarde de travers (Paris: Editions Bruno Doucey, 2010); others in the September 2013 issue of the Gazette de la Lucarne, a purely local newsletter printed by the Paris bookstore called La Lucarne des écrivains. These poems have no English equivalents, except for the first one, Le Fou rêve de l’amoureux, in which “The Garden” is given a new twist.
