Code Poetry: Blake’s Jerusalem

Amongst the forthcoming Flash Brighton sessions in the calendar we have a talk on William Blake by Rich. This news prompted the following from Neil:

var bow = bringMe("burning gold");
var arrows = bringMe("desire");
var shield= bringMe();
var clouds = Clouds.unfold();
var chariot= bringMe("fire");

do {
   mentalFight.cease = false
   sword.sleep = false
} while (! England.pleasantpastures.isJerusalemBuild())

Note this code will only run in green and pleasant lands.

    might i add:

    var garden:OfLove = getChildhoodGarden();

    if (garden.chapel is Chapel)
    {
    garden.chapel.x = garden.width / 2;
    garden.chapel.y = garden.height / 2;
    garden.chapel.shut = true;
    garden.chapel.doctrine = “Thou shalt not”;

    var len:int = garden.sweetFlowers.length;
    for (var i:int=0; i<len; i++) garden.sweetFlowers[i] = new Tombstone();

    var priest:Priest;
    len:int = garden.priests.length;
    for (var i:int=0; i<len; i++){
    priest = Priest( garden.priests[i] );

    var c:Class = Class( getDefinitionByName(”grain.of.Sand”) );
    var world:World = new c( new WildFlower() );
    var heaven:IAfterWorld = world.getHeaven();

    while( world != heaven ){
    world.skylark.wound();
    heaven.cherubim.ceaseSinging();
    for each ( misery in night ){
    world.sweetDelight()
    heaven.appear( God.getInstance() == world.light )
    }
    }

    if (tyger.isBurning() == “bright”) { _immortalHand.frame(tyger.symmetry.fearful); }
    }
