Symbolism began as a literary movement with Charles Baudelaire's book of poetry Flowers of Evil being a cornerstone of inspiration for Symbolist painters. Your task is to
reverse this process, pick a Symbolist artwork from the lecture or artwork folder and
write an expressive poem about it. Symbolic poets often used free verse which means
the poem has no set rhythm, rhyme scheme, or any particular structure. In that spirit,
your poem does not have to be structured but must be at least 14 lines long. Browse
Charles Baudelaire's book of poetry Flowers of Evil for examples of Symbolist poetry.
