Comte de Lautréamont (4 April 1846 – 24 November 1870)...Happy Birthday...

Chants de Maldoror illustration  Hans Bellmer 1971

Pale hair in thick windings

Crackled in shadows horribly;

And behind, in rough, long hummings

There unreeled, according to species and size,

The animals of the earth and of the heavenly circlings.

Hans Christian Andersen...Happy Birthday... Picture book...1869
