My students get very grossed out when I do Donne's "The Flea" with them...until they see the humor in its twisted logic. I will, in fact, be teaching 17th centure poetry very soon...so this was fun to see. As always, I enjoyed reading your commentray. BTW, I did read what you wrote on James Mathias' blog regarding Penelope's initial email. I too was dismayed...I know how much I enjoy writing and reading the accompanying texts. I'm glad that was cleared up:>carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13650904230033262702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12694709.post-1133141177371837642005-11-28T02:26:00.000+01:002005-11-28T02:26:00.000+01:00I always thought human fleas were people who suck ...I always thought human fleas were people who suck out your will to live.
