""Come, Madam, come, all rest my powers defy, Until I labour, I in labour lie. The foe oft-times having the foe in sight, Is tir’d with standing though he never fight. Off with that girdle, like heaven’s Zone glistering, But a far fairer world encompassing. Unpin that spangled breastplate which you wear, That th’eyes of busy fools may be stopped there.""

There are some poets I would thoroughly enjoy conversing in real time with; if I was to speak face-to-face with this John Donne, I would be melting ice in his hands.

John Donne is by and large a forgotten poet. Yet his mastery of his Art was magnificent. Poets would do well to read Donne because much wisdom lies within his many verses. "Let thy pen its fire explode. Wherein thy true heart demands. Love in its heaviest load. More than most ardent lovers can stand."" Lind30 Rhyme... A splash and a step off the cliff each time. RJL
