December 2018 — It was the last time I was in the United States. I had come to San Francisco to apply for my visa to return to live and work in France. After breakfast avec an ex (with whom I had once lived in Paris), I bumped into William Birdwood. He is preoccupied by a desire to see his abortion amendment to the U.S. Constitution taken seriously. Years later, Ealy Mays and Toma Kukenyte speak over the phone...though both were in Paris it was (and is) Covid. Summertime in the Jardin Luxembourg she confesses sins and sexual crimes. With the powers not vested in me by no one, I do not absolve her.
