Misfortune was my god.
Arthur Rimbaud

In the great glasshouses streaming with condensation, the children in mourning-dress beheld marvels.

The northern lights rise like a kiss to the sea
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
Yet this is the watch by night. Let us all accept new strength, and real tenderness. And at dawn, armed with glowing patience, we will enter the cities of glory.
Arthur Rimbaud

Stronger than alcohol, vaster than poetry, Ferment the freckled red bitterness of love!
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
O seasons, O castles, What soul is without flaws? All its lore is known to me, Felicity, it enchants us all.
Arthur Rimbaud
