The Vivenot Elegies. Along a Murmuring Brook

The poet arrives at a small village exhausted from many months of flat-searching, but if he'd expire here at this brook, who'll come to help? His mind is engaged in painting a portrait from his past Muse from memory. At a nearby social market, he finds nourishment for reasonable prices. He works in the confines of a kitchenette within a small bedsitter unit. Walking regularly along the Weidling brook, he discovers its surroundings.
Meeting a 'golden girl', he writes poetry at his desk. During the rainy month of August, he meets Elena, a local specialty cook with a great personality. While dedicated to the freedom in his creative work, he discovers a split in his personality, as ZZ, the poet, and ZG, the artist. During this period as a multilevel artist, he has continual verbal fights with his spouse of 46 years. ZZ's virtual love with his Muse keeps him going.
ZZ's daily strolls along the brook with its murmuring like Ravel's music, bring out dreams of beaches on an intimate island in the heart of the Med.
