    Night in Hell from A Season in Hell

    My hallucinations are endless. This is what I’ve always gone through: the end of my faith in history, the neglect of my principles. I shall say no more about this: poets and visionaries would be jealous. I am the richest one of all, a thousand times, and I will hoard it like the sea.

    ***

    I ought to have a special hell for my anger, a hell for my pride, - and a hell for sex; a whole symphony of hells!

    Arthur Rimbaud

    Les Paradis artificiels

    You are sitting and smoking; you believe that you are sitting in your pipe, and that your pipe is smoking you; you are exhaling yourself in bluish clouds. You feel just fine in this position, and only one thing gives you worry or concern: how will you ever be able to get out of your pipe?

    Charles Baudelaire, 1860

    I say one must be a seer, make oneself a seer. The poet makes himself a seer by an immense, long, deliberate derangement of all the senses. Arthur Rimbauld in Letter to Paul Demeny May 15, 1871 Arthur Rimbaud profile in Paris,1976 by Francis Schklowsky [ i might even like this more then any of Wojnarowicz’ interventions ] from Verdeau
