Description another drawing inspired by Baudelaire's poems.

another version can be found here: www.deviantart.com/darkchildre…

The Ghost Just like an angel with evil eye,
I shall return to thee silently,
Upon thy bower I'll alight,
With falling shadows of the night

With thee, my brownie, I'll commune,
And give thee kisses cold as the moon,
And with a serpent's moist embrace,
I'll crawl around thy resting-place.

And when the livid morning falls,
Thou'lt find alone the empty walls,
And till the evening, cold 'twill be.

As others with their tenderness,
Upon thy life and youthfulness,
I'll reign alone with dread o'er thee. (Link: archive.org/stream/flowersofev… )

Thank you, Baudelaire had at least two poems both named The Cat, and I used one of them in my paper cutting drawing here 

This poem is even more fitting.

PS: Baudelaire is one hell of a poet.
