Was Blake a reactionary?
>I turn my eyes to the Schools & Universities of Europe
>And there behold the Loom of Locke whose Woof rages dire
>Washd by the Water-wheels of Newton. black the cloth
>In heavy wreathes folds over every Nation; cruel Works
>Of many Wheels I view, wheel without wheel, with cogs tyrannic
>Moving by compulsion each other: not as those in Eden: which
>Wheel within Wheel in freedom revolve in harmony & peace.

Lightning in a bottle. He's a complete schizo. Now I can't say for sure that's the case with Nael, but he is a 6-year old so statistically he'll grow up to be of no creative value.

Peasants are not competing with the king for his crown, light will always be the fastest thing in this universe, and you will always and forever be the biggest retard to ever grace this board with their idiocy.

Nael, Age 6. A writer of poems for boys. Certainly better than Blake. Has at least a voice of his own. Nothing I would care to have written myself. In mentality and emotion, hopelessly juvenile.

Blake draws upon his broader life experience and deeper levels of introspection and projects them into the inner recesses of the tiger. Nael does the same from his more limited worldview. Both are valid.

The literary quality is more classically structured with Blake. Nael fundamentally understands this and chooses to convey his message in as few words as possible.

This is why I would give the final nod to Nael.

>> No.17129681

>>17126819
The left, it's more creative and interesting. The right is good but very low effort in how it sees the emancipatory process, to the point of abandoning the gravity of the situation in favor of the memeability.
