• on The Flea by John Donne, on May 22, 2007

  I just had to write an english Lit paper on this poem- it was the only question i think i did well in. Haha! this poem does intice the reader- thank god he didnt actually use it for suduction though, he would have only recived a slap i imagian, although im sure it served its purpouse when reading it to his peers to prove his wit.
  
  hard to imagian that he was actualy a member of the church eh?
• on Porphyria's Lover by Robert Browning, on May 22, 2007

  where is your proof- your argument, your sources? i went on your website but coudl only find you saying it was euthanasia- and then leaving at that giving me nothing to back up that statement!
  prehaps i missed a link on your site- if that is the case please send me the link that contains your actual proof or at least an argument, rather than an insubstatial statement.
  thanking you in anticipation

• on Porphyria's Lover by Robert Browning, on May 22, 2007

  allways going to be a fav

  written at a time of religious conraversy the last cuplet of this poem would have certainly cause some contraversy. i will always love this poem- i always have. the abnormally possesive lover in this poem expresses his desire that this particually intense moment of love will last forever, but his was of imortilasing that moment is, to say the least, unuasual
• on To His Coy Mistress by Andrew Marvell, on May 22, 2007

  this is and always will be my favorite

  i just had my english lit exam and i had to compare "The Flea" by John Donne to a poem similar in style- well my entire class guessed what i compared it too- honestly no matter what the question i would have been able to relate it back to this poem. i absultly love it.
  "my vegitable love shall grow" <-- what a fantastic line.
  
  it's doubtfull that he would have actually been attempting to suduce his misteress when he wrote this. Its far more likly that his target audiance was other members of parliment and gentry to whome this would have proved his wit.
  
  I loved the imagrey in this poem, and the sexual metaphores are trully outstanding- seriously im not joking when i say that "vegitable love" has become a form of playground slag amoungst me friends and I.
  
  i loved the 3 main arguments in this
  first your classical admiration, "two hundred to adore each brest" telling her how beautiful she is.
  followed by the subtle threat of her dying alone with the morbid imagery of "then worms shall try that long preserved virginity" a horrid image in itself followed up by reminding her that she would have dies without ever feeling loves embrace.
  next he moves onto a lustfull energetic exilerating stanza showing her what sex with him could be like.
  
  this poem trully is a masterpeice- in that fact i have no doubt.
  
  lastly what is often missed is the wonderful satirical aspect of this poem. i honestly can find no fault in it. SUPERB
