“How to Read Paradise Lost”
Legend has it
that William Blake used to go out
with his wife
into his garden at night
to read Paradise Lost
totally nude.
under bits of crushed and tumbling stars
he would read Milton’s blank verse
to the moon flowers
that opened and glowed
as he spoke.
there, like this,
in a newly re-created Eden
Blake imagined
just what it felt like
to be the first and only man
on earth
in love.

Love seeketh not itself to please.
Not for itself hath any care
But for another gives it’s ease
And builds a heaven in hell’s despair
William Blake

Todas las pasiones son buenas mientras uno es dueño de ellas, y todas son malas cuando nos esclavizan.
