I mention the kids in scooby-doo and TSI because, it seems to me that
children are the ones P celebrates in his works. His use of Blake in
AGTD did not surprize me and, although it's Blake's black hammers and
burning furnace of human hearts worked to soot that he focuses on,
because the work is about industrial workers, we can hear the weep
weep weep of the chimney boys black and white sold by the balckening
churches of industry.
By the time a kid is Prairie's age or Bareftone age or whatever, the
justice they seek, the innocense they speak of without knowing it, how
they save eachother with majick, is lost and no one is saved. It's a
dark vision but for that song of innocense.
so if all do their duty they need not fear harm ....
