Well found, Tim! The lines that are (sort of) relevant are: "For he counteracts the powers of darkness / by his electrical skin and glaring eyes..." -- ...and I was alluding (very tangentially, I'm afraid (and as always)) to the fact that the two flowers seem to be bringing light (in the top half of the picture) out of the darkness (at the bottom -- which is actually my shadow!).

OK - I've searched Google, and found Christopher Smart.
"For I will consider my Cat Jeoffry". I'm none the wiser, but I think I'm on the right wavelength!
Love the background to this one!
