 Baudelaire, Charles
But what Baudelaire knew how to see, and helped his successors to see, was the possibility of a poetry based not upon the stable but upon the fleeting, resounding as a sustained elegy of the passerby; what he found about him, in painting and in the street, was what he was to call the modern.

 HERMENAUT: Charles-Pierre Baudelaire: 1821-1867
Baudelaire was fascinated with Swedenborgianism because it seemed to blend the philosopher's rigorous skepticism toward received notions and modes of perception with the artist's unique ability to find the perfect symbol to express his own unique notions and perceptions.
Baudelaire, on the other hand, is no acrobat, no eagle: For him the abyss—if we can describe his vertiginous double-vision as an abyss of sorts—always remains terrifying.
The prose-poem is an arabesque—which Baudelaire describes in his journal as "the most spiritual of designs." Prose poetry, then, was Baudelaire's attempt to invent a medium which could express his vertiginous idea of truth, which is sincere without being bourgeois, and absurd without being meaningless.

For Baudelaire, it is the artist-philosopher's curse and duty to remain on the precipice of the abyss, to suffer from vertigo.

Baudelaire had been highly stimulated by the fighting; it had provided him with the kind of excitement which set his adrenaline coursing and enabled him to explode out of his habitual condition of lethargy.

 Charles Baudelaire
Baudelaire's recurring theme of the vampire appears briefly in the line, "and how much more I relish burial in his hot belly than in my cold vaults." The darker aspect of the poem is so deftly woven into the fabric of the verse that it does not become apparent until one reads it several times.
One reason I find Baudelaire so enjoyable is that he seems to be almost an "anti-poet." So much of poetry is concerned with idolizing and describing beauty, of taking joy in the myriad configurations of life, and compared to such poetry, Baudelaire is a breath of foul air.
Baudelaire's line, "-Yet you will come to this offence," is not far off from "to this favor she must come." The device of couching "Carrion" in the form of a love poem to a beautiful lady only reinforces the theme Baudelaire is exploring.
