RE: On Blake's Poem "The Fly." Part 1/3

in #poetry7 years ago

Great reading of Blake's poem, @marlyncabrera. Students of literature and readers in general (especially those who find reading and understanding poetry an alien thing) should benefit from your step-by-step approach. Very insightful.

We should inscribe these words in our campus:

If thought is life
And strength and breath,
And the want
Of thought is death,

Sort:  

Some people shun poetry because they think it is cryptic or is just about whimsical phrasing. Blake's work should prove them wrong.

Thanks for reading, dear @hlezama :D
