Coming Soon!!
The Revenant
Like angels with bright savage eyes
I will come treading phantom-wise
Hither where thou art wont to sleep,
Amid the shadows hollow and deep.And I will give thee, my dark one,
Kisses as icy as the moon,
Caresses as of snakes that crawl
In circles round a cistern’s wall.When morning shows its livid face
There will be no-one in my place,
And a strange cold will settle hereOthers, not knowing what thou art,
May think to reign upon thy heart
With tenderness; I trust to fear.— Charles Baudelaire, translation by George Dillon, Flowers of Evil (NY: Harper and Brothers, 1936)
