"A poet so talented he made poetry less dull by using illuminated plates to express the visual ideas in his poems. Allen Ginsberg idolised this dude more than I idolise Osamu Tezuka, I'm not kidding..."

"I love reading this illustrated version. These are poems I read when my spirit is flagging and I've lost my inner child. It's good to take one on a walk, memorize some lines, then return home, with a "rural pen", imagine sitting inside a flower, reflect on another's sorrow, or the Chimney Sweeper, on infant's joy, listen for laughter in the woods, say a prayer to Mercy, Pity, Peace and Love, say out loud the poem "Night" to the lost little boy and girl. This and Songs of Experience were given to me by a friend 40 years ago, when we were seniors in high school. I pulled it out, today after memorizing "Tyger" . Tomorrow I'll memorize "Night"."
