Poetry and Social Change

I agree with the writer's of the textbook that Blake's poetry could enact social change by appealing to the imagination of the reader. I agree with them because when a person imagines thing it takes their mind to a whole different world, most of the time how they wish something was. So, in this case they could imagine how they would want the world to change socially. The Parliament transcript affected my reading of Blake's work by giving me another way to look at his poetry, to see past the imaginary world and to see how the world really could be.
