by Jules Renard (1864 - 1910)

Le Lézard
NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view
Language: French (Français) 
Fils spontané de la pierre fendue où je m’appuie, 
il me grimpe sur l’épaule. 
Il a cru que je continuais le mur 
parce que je reste immobile 
et que j’ai un paletot couleur de muraille. 
Ça flatte tout de même.

Le Mur. — Je ne sais quel frisson me passe sur le dos.

Le Lézard. — C’est moi.
