In "The Mental Traveler" Blake anticipates the casual observations of quantum physicists 100 years after his death that the observer alters the universe--a mystery intruding on Mind and history. You are very courageous to explore this further with Blake in tow.
I enjoyed “The Mental Traveler”, and thank you for calling me courageous, Irving! Thank you for clarifying my poem for the readers. Sometimes I think they know what I’m talking about. : )
Love the duality and structure of this! I especially dug the transformation of the obstacle and mountain. The eye altering enacted across the poem. Really cool piece!
There’s a clear and powerful movement here from distortion into a more expansive way of seeing.
The way perception reshapes everything really comes through.
Thank you!
Rea, this is gorgeous. The imagery is stunning. A fitting tribute to Blake.
Thank you, Stephanie!
You’re welcome.
“The disturbed eye alters
What is perceived to be”.
So true.
Sadly, Christopher. <3
Ooh wow, what a mood! I’d love to have all day to reflect on this ❤️
Thank you, my friend! <3 <3

Rea! You're everywhere! <5
Thank you?
Yes! It's great! <5
love this. particularly the end of the second half (stanza):
“The altered eye alters reality
From calamity to opportunity
Reverence from agony
Life, sacred and precious”
Thank you, Chris. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
