When Rimbaud held up the green absinthe again, I closed my eyes in despair.

However, peeking reluctantly from between his fingers, he saw a pious kiss falling on Verlaine's palm.

Good things always fade so quickly, and I have to watch them die. This is more cruel than total renunciation. For a split second I was almost certain I was in love with him, and yet he fell and I was elsewhere, unable to even touch his cold body.
