Page 28 - GALIET THE HOLY WORD: Blake IV++

“Si
Se” Sublime Eterna
And out of Hegel, the most beauteous teleopoesis, the fractal of glory, Beauty’s Blossom, whose spirit is the chant of Living Beauty 3⁄4 Poiesis; whose soul carries the forgotten melancholy of The Fall, of Dante’s Selva Oscura, these, crystals from Sophia’s tears: each, a flowering light-petal of the Absolute Mind or Idea, 20 the Light Word and the Word Light I am that I am. White upon white,
the symmetry of Beauty’s tears.
And as her tears descend towards history’s lyric gardens and its deserts arid, in presence, in absence, the gaze of the world meets the tragic Hegeliana: her thesis and antithesis synthesized fifty years following Romanticism. Might not Freud’s fabled co-existence of opposites have flourished from Blake’s seed, as if it were another historical tension
