Les amis
Language: French (Français)
Chosen for Diff
Viens, les vins vont aux plages, Et les flots par millions! Vois le Bitter suavage Rouler du haut des monts! Gagnons, pèlerins sages, L'absinthe aux verts piliers... MOI: Plus ces paysages. Qu'est l'ivresse, Amis? J'aime autant, mieux, même, Pourrir dans l'étang, Sous l'affreuse crème, Près des bois flottants.
