Project Gutenberg 2016-05-22 Public domain in the USA. 213 Verhaeren, Emile 1855 1916 Verhaeren, Émile Poèmes (nouvelle série): Les soirs, Les débacles, Les flambeaux noirs Produced by Annemie Arnst and Marc D'Hooghe (Images generously made available by the Internet Archive) "Poèmes (nouvelle série): Les soirs, Les débacles, Les flambeaux noirs" by Émile Verhaeren is a collection of poetry written in the late 19th century. The verses explore themes of existential despair, the passage of time, and the intricate relationship between human emotions and the natural world. Through vivid imagery and deep introspection, Verhaeren paints a contemplative picture of life's struggles, often introducing a melancholic atmosphere. The opening of the collection sets a somber tone, introducing us to the "malades" (the sick) who suffer both physically and emotionally. The poems depict their isolation and resignation as they confront their pain in a dimly lit space, with references to a faded provincial town and the looming presence of death. As they wrestle with their thoughts, the verses take the reader through a tapestry of emotions, highlighting regret, desire, and a sense of longing to escape their harsh reality, establishing the contemplative and poignant nature of Verhaeren's work.
