Imitatio Blake
by AlvinTEthington
see author's notes for description of form
Lion! Lion! roaring loud In the anger of the crowd Can the Lord view thy kind face And then thy prophecy embrace? Original passage: Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forests of the night What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? William Blake, The Tyger, Songs of Experience (1794) |
A pastiche is a piece written in the style of a famous author. One may not plagiarize and one must write about a totally different subject. One must pay tribute to the author by naming the work one used as your model.
