Corinne,
I was absolutely amazed when I read this. You certainly have a knack not only for English, and Italian lyrics but now to add to it French phrases. I absolutely adored the insertion of "those in the know" as the relativity of it to Magritte's Chapeau. Have you been to an art gallery lately to bring about this write? Regardless, it is so wonderfully penned and you have done a fantastic job as always. Adored it as usual, and you have no boundaries of what you are able to express in poetry and song and I am always amazed at that.
Take Care,
Kay

An off the wall ode to my favorite off/on/in the wall painter. Excellent stuff, another one added to my favorite poems.
