    A little poem

    A gentleman on his couch lights a cigarette leisurely and fix something on the wall while speaking: I looked inside the room Mr. C. You as a light yellowish sometimes release the music or read something that is not at all reassuring. sometimes look at the screen and three phantom heads...
