It would be a fallacy to argue that my location here in the shadows of the riverbank
in the company of another man about whom I knew next to nothing
was anything less than conscious.
I couldn’t say if the vision I saw was of the past or the future but I no longer cared
I took a step forward and then another, ignoring the chorus of screams in my head.
I approached the Russian, who stood up as if he had been expecting me. “Do I know you?” he asked.
I shook my head ambiguously. “I’m not sure,” I replied.
“Follow me,” he said and together we walked up the stairs into the infinite fog of the Parisian night.
