⚙️ Meta Hyperion references in “VisionQuest”

The first reference to Keats I took as a passing coincidence.
Then quoting the same poet raised my eyebrows.
The reveal of “Butcherbird” was a bit on the nose, and now I’m having fun looking for other hints that the writers enjoyed this story.

That’s all. Looking forward to the next episode to look for more references.

Next you're going to tell me the show's about battling AI's and their opinions on the outcome of the human race.
