They were young
In their mid-twenties
Some in their teens
They were intelligent
And some believed
Were geniuses
They were passionate
Wildly in love
Adventurous
Well they were exuberant
Capable of hate
Extreme anger

They were drawn
Towards the exceptional
They avoided work
But worked hard on their laziness
And evermore
It seems they walked
Wandering through Paris
Was a genuine art
