Amusing love letter.
She repays her debt to her "dear little creditor, I don't want to have anything of yours, not a seveu, not an obole, not a liard, not an atôme not anything from nothing. It's my idea ze can well say it isn't it. I don't want to be led around by the nose, it looks too serene. Here, I don't want it, I'm not your servant". It's hot, and she'd like to "take a walk with you to get some fresh air and breathe a little. But you won't have the good sense to come and get me, there's no danger, you'd rather see me die than take me out for 5 minutes. Shut up monster you're not worthy of my wrath and ze despise you"... Let him come quickly: "We're hungry and thirsty for you. Kiss me. Baisez moi encore zaime ça moi [...] Baise moi touzours touzours et encore plus c'est mon idée. Fuck me ze want it ze exize it"...
Former Robert Manuel collection (November 16, 1986, n°200).
