The highs and lows of teenage dirtbag Arthur Rimbaud.

SENSATIONS


Through blue summer nights I will pass along paths,

Pricked by wheat, trampling short grass:

Dreaming, I will feel coolness underfoot,

Will let breezes bathe my bare head.



Not a word, not a thought:

Boundless love surging through my soul,

And I will wander far away, a vagabond

In Nature—as happily as with a woman.



-Arthur Rimbaud (1870)
