Oh Lion in a peculiar guise,
Sharp Roman road to Paradise,
Come eat me up, I'll pay thy toll
With all my flesh, and keep my soul.

A poem a day from deemikay.

Today, Le Revenant by Stevie Smith. I'm wondering if she was thinking about a similarly titled poem by Baudelaire? But this is Stevie being Stevie, of course.

(Original and plenty of translations of the Baudelaire here: fleursdumal.org/poem/171 )
