Thoughts at the Denfort-Rochereau Metro Stop
We like our marble lion rampant
but we much prefer
a cage to mediate
our flesh and jaw encounters
of the first kind.
Here the whip is seen
- so why do we so breathlessly wish for
The tumbled stool, the sawdust bloodied?

The opening sequence of Rivette's Pont du Nord could also be about this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yObArvIHti8
I was thinking of Agnes Varda's short film about the Denfort Rocvhereau lion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CTLKGGYWp0
