I PLACE MYSELF
BEYOND
THE DISTANCE
SHORES
WHAT BECOMES A ISLAND
TO KEEP FOREVER
MORE THE LOVE
I AM
THE MAN
IBE..A SOUL BELIEVED..
YOUR
FRIENDSHIP
WHAT WAVES AT ME
THE
HONORABLE
TIDE THAT DRIFTS
ALONG MY
DIALECT
TO LEAD ME THROUGH
WHEN I'M LIFTED FROM A FLOAT
ENDLESSLY..NEVER
KNOWING MY DEPARTURE..

~~~~~
John Donne..
No Man is an Island
"No man is an island, entire of itself;
every man is a piece of the continent,
a part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less,
as well as if a promontory were,
as well as if a manor of thy friend’s
or of thine own were:
any man’s death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind,
and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls;
it tolls for thee.
(From John Donne’s Meditation XVII)
John Donne (1572-1631)"
