“Kubla Khan" is more prone to intertain the imagination. Kubla Khan enjoys life and is allways in good spirits I think . In the last line, Coleridge says he drinks the milk of Paradise so therefore that shows that he was’nt cautioning against the imagination. The only way for everyone to get to their own personal "paradise" is through their imagination and thier minds Khan shows you how to obtain that. The Earth will never be a paradise- without imagination during the times we live in. Thats why imagination plays a bing role in life. We could never experience what that might be like without the woderful imagination God created us with. Throughout the whole poem, there is a general sense of indulgence and feelings of what it was like in Kubla Khan's world. Just because he indulgdes himself in ornate things does not make his paradise a bad place. Every once in a while, everyone needs to be indulgent in things of thier intrest.
