Love’s lost cause flicks through the magazines. She’s had the same dream since she was sixteen, now she takes it out on me. Words refuse to act as go-betweens, so I am left to stare at the books and a picture of James Dean – and cold reflections in the screen. In the café on the corner was an old, Italian singer sounding just so sad. ..............................................
