Parisian night owls will probably know Mehdi better under his nyctalope pseudonym, DJ Raven. Beyond his passion for music, he shares with us today, with his love of beautiful words, some memories of his childhood on the road.

A summer of hitchhiking,

To be surprised

One day to find

The tenderness of your eyes.

Drawing through the glass

From the tip of my nose

The last memories

Of the infinite territory

That covered

The black of your eyes

Unlimited

Insomnia

A fine wisp of air

Comes to my attention

The car is at a standstill

I hear in the distance

Other children

Screaming, going in circles

Like around a fire

Daddy's gone to get some fags

You can't even hear

The sounds of the road

Everything seems to have stopped

And I close my eyes.
