My Ambition And The Confusion That Can Occur With Foreign Names

by Gerard McKeown

All I want to do
is meet a French girl
who speaks good English.
I'd take back to my room
and ask her if
she wants to watch French movies.
Like Amelie,
A Very Long Engagement
or anything
that stars Audrey Tautou
I hope that she looks
Like Audrey Tautou,
or Jean Moreau
Catherine Deneuve
or Brigitte Bardot
Marion Cotillard
or Eloide Navar
but not
Yves Montand
because
Yves Montand
is a man.
