Anagogy, Nature and Human Thought

If the human mind is the circumference, that is, the thing in which all things are contained, as we begin to deal with the anagogical nature of phases, we see that human action may move from being imitative of nature to being the thing in which nature itself is contained. This works in the literal sense that the human mind is an organic product made by nature itself, and in that the possibilities of nature are contained within the collective human subconscious or within the expanse of human imagination. Like The Idea of Order at Key West, we see an ambigious transition from nature producing and containing the human mind, containing it within the confines of nature, and the mind attempting mimicry of said nature, to a newer phase, the phase of anagogy where nature's breadth is within the infinite of human mind, with nature being the lower entity, all nature becoming intrinsicly imitative of human thought. It would seem that once we examine things in the ultimate, in the broad general "underthought" of anagogical collective unconscious, that we may find the way of things, the natural idea of order, as in the poem, becomes displaced and flipped on its head, reversing the roles that nature and the human imagination play. We see, as we do in Wallace Stephen's poem, that nature goes from being human inspiration or the way of things to a concept percieved within the limits of human imaginative potential, a universal theme, a mere singularity of possibility within the infinite confines of our minds as poets.
