Parisian Scene
Akira and I are in a cafe in Paris, the kind with slim wicker chairs shoved together, their backs a line of arcs. Two café au laits appear and Akira removes his gloves. It's nearly Christmas and even small places like these are decorated lush. Outside, the air is white.
In a corner, a group of well-dressed people hold long cigarettes. Jewels dance under umbrellas of light. "Reminds me of that time," I say to Akira, "we watched snowflakes flutter into the light of street lamps."
"Mmm," he returns.
We halve a crossaint and watch a woman bustle about, smudging makeup on half a dozen of the women’s lily faces. Chairs and skirts rustle. A tripod on wheels appears. A camera.
I was reminded of this scene the other day, when I happened upon a film crew working a corner of Seattle's downtown. The mood was much different.
Perhaps it was the novelty of being in Europe, but the powdery feel of the French scene consumed one's senses much more fully. More drama over there. Or was there? Maybe we've simply lived long enough that chance encounters like these no longer engage us. I wonder which it is, and which it isn't.
