Poetic justice: “Rimbaud leant out of the window as Verlaine was walking back from Camden market…and shouted a stream of abuse. Verlaine hit Rimbaud with a fish he’d acquired in the market [and] fled to Brussels. Rimbaud, contrite, immediately followed… Verlaine shot Rimbaud, wounding him…and went to prison.” https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2020/nov/22/arts-world-dismayed-at-fate-of-london-home-of-rimbaud-and-verlaine?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Paul Verlaine, born #OTD in 1844 #Verlaine #Rimbaud
