The One Tree of Luna (2014)
“ Men!
In a change of tone, Men! is a humorous piece.
It’s a twist on the old saying: In order to catch a prince, you have to kiss a thousand toads.
Men! The only three-letter swear-word. They’re all the same — sweet nothings and then creeping away in the morning.
At twenty-nine, I’d pretty much given up any hope of finding an adult male. I was just looking for someone who might treat me better than dirt.
Probably Paris wasn’t such a good place to start but I’d won a fre...e all-expense paid vacation and I’d never been there. I knew enough French to get around but I was very clearly an American. It didn’t matter what clothing or perfume I wore, I had that indefinable Yank-ness about me.
After the first full day, I realized that the only men worth looking at were the statues in the Louvre. The Parisian males were as willing to give me a leer as a wave and everything in their bearing seemed out of place in any self-respecting shark.MoreLess
