by Tristan Corbière (1845 - 1875)

Paysage mauvais
Language: French (Français) 
Sables de vieux os - Le flot râle
Des glas : crevant bruit sur bruit ...
- Palud pâle, où la lune avale
De gros vers, pour passer la nuit.

- Calme de peste, où la fièvre
Cuit ... Le follet damné languit.
- Herbe puante où le lièvre
Est un sorcier poltron qui fuit ...

- La Lavandière blanche étale
Des trépassés le linge sale,
Au soleil des loups... - Les crapauds,

Petits chantres mélancoliques
Empoisonnent de leurs coliques,
Les champignons, leurs escabeaux.
