Verlaine thought
That a woman and a cat
Both had claws of steel,
Were these metaphoric,
Or were they real?
Play with a cat,
You may get scratched.
Play with a woman,
And see what happens...
That’s the deal!
and with none of either, Eugene, do you know when it will happen when you play with them in the dark

I would like to translate this poem
there is something intriguing and dangerous about the pussycat attraction! at any age I hope!
