LA MUSE VÉNALE
Ma pauvre muse, hélas ! qu’as-tu donc ce matin ?
Tes yeux creux sont peuplés de visions nocturnes,
Et je vois tour à tour réfléchis sur ton teint
La folie et l’horreur, froides et taciturnes.
Le succube verdâtre et le rose lutin
T’ont-ils versé la peur et l’amour de leurs urnes ?
Le cauchemar, d’un poing despotique et mutin,

<blockquote><p>
LA MUSE VÉNALE</p>
<p>Ma pauvre muse, hélas ! qu’as-tu donc ce matin ?<br />
Tes yeux creux sont peuplés de visions nocturnes,<br />
Et je vois tour à tour réfléchis sur ton teint<br />
La folie et l’horreur, froides et taciturnes.</p>
<p>Le succube verdâtre et le rose lutin<br />
T’ont-ils versé la peur et l’amour de leurs urnes ?<br />
Le cauchemar, d’un poing despotique et mutin,<br />
T’a-t-il noyée au fond d’un fabuleux Minturnes ? [  23 ]</p>
<p>Je voudrais qu’exhalant l’odeur de la santé<br />
Ton sein de pensers forts fût toujours fréquenté,<br />
Et que ton sang chrétien coulât à flots rhythmiques,</p>
<p>Comme les sons nombreux des syllabes antiques,<br />
Où règnent tour à tour le père des chansons,<br />
Phœbus, et le grand Pan, le seigneur des moissons.
</p></blockquote>
<p>Charles Baudelaire was once but is no longer. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[I will not make this needlessly long:
The explosive pertinence of a remembered detail may challenge repressive or merely complacent systems of prescriptive memory or history; memory like the body, may speak in a language that reasoned inquiry will not hear.
Randolph Starn &#038; Natalie Zemon Davis
N.B. also, two fantastic names.
