In "Cleopatra's Remorse," a choice must be made between her love and loyalty to Egypt. "Does her heart truly ache for Anthony or has it become caustic and soundproof." There is dramatic dialogue between Persephone and Zeus in "The Plea," " Father Zeus, do not cast me down to the dank land of stealth, to moldy things.."; and in the title poem "Paris Spoken Here", "When the rain came down hard, you hustled us off to a warm brasserie to purchase a café crème.."
