I wander through the dusty streets of Mandalay
Near where the dirty Erwaddy River does flow
And on each human face I meet
Marks of weakness, marks of woe.

That’s William Blake. Robert Blake was a really cool actor who unfortunately ended up murdering someone. Anyway, great photos, and I love the reference to one of my favourite poems. I even quote from it on the blurb of my book How to Be Free.

I am reading Colin Wilsons the Outsider. You have probably read it but if not have a look. Itts excellent. He writes about William Blake amongst other outsiders.
