I really enjoy the early poetry and the politics of Blake. I dont like the strange mythos in the Prophecies though I do see his attacks on capitalism as kind of mystical insight into the more scientific opponents of capital in the 19th century shortly after his death. ( )

*Finally* finished! The only way I can see Ginsberg et al inspired by what often feels like an extended, weirdly Christian round of Dungeons & Dragons, with occasionally excellent phrases thrown in, is via the help of hallucinogens-- in which case, yeah, this poetry would be terrifying. ( )
