THE FLEA by John Donne
MARK but this flea, and mark in this,
How little that which thou deniest me is ;
It suck'd me first, and now sucks thee,
And in this flea our two bloods mingled be.
Thou know'st that this cannot be said
A sin, nor shame, nor loss of maidenhead ;
Yet this enjoys before it woo,
And pamper'd swells with one blood made of two ;
And this, alas ! is more than we would do.
O stay, three lives in one flea spare,
Where we almost, yea, more than married are.
This flea is you and I, and this
Our marriage bed, and marriage temple is.
Though parents grudge, and you, we're met,
And cloister'd in these living walls of jet.
Though use make you apt to kill me,
Let not to that self-murder added be,
And sacrilege, three sins in killing three.
Cruel and sudden, hast thou since
Purpled thy nail in blood of innocence?
Wherein could this flea guilty be,
Except in that drop which it suck'd from thee?
Yet thou triumph'st, and say'st that thou
Find'st not thyself nor me the weaker now.
'Tis true ; then learn how false fears be ;
Just so much honour, when thou yield'st to me,
Will waste, as this flea's death took life from thee.
Err I thought it was a greek persoon with an O who wrote the poem about a flea or was it a fly :confused:
Where did 'The Flea' come from - bit random wannnit?! Still, a reet risky poem in it's day - especially as the printed 'f' and 's' were pretty much the same back then! William Blake wrote 'The Fly', which is pretty much ripped off by The Small Faces on Ogden's Nut Gone Flake, (well I reckon so Romantic Poet/Psychedelic Album Trivia fans!) He also drew The Ghost of a Flea - which is well freaky.

The wind whipping about her face, jelly oozing from her shoes, she decided to finally tell him her secret.
She locked eyes with him and cried "His name, dear brother, is MARK!"
