Dancing in heat
to the beat of the flicker of the fire
the dim light incandescent
leaves the rustic effervescence
to awash our senses in the scent of each other at home

François #Bayrou is the current Prime Minister of #France.
In 1996, violence was denounced in the elite catholic school of his constituency.
