Rob Harle #25 Gigolette

Rob Harle #25 Gigolette

stark in black and white

the portrait holds secrets,

Gigolette - enigmatic and mysterious

femme fatale of the Rue St Denis,

“You come with me boys?”

Echoes of The Little Sparrow

flitter around her

dominating her presence,

trapped in her own ways

a cage of her own making,

but

her eyes are full of compassion

I wonder what led her to this life?

wonder why she doesn’t smile?

then I understand;

“Je ne regrette rien.”
