"Death Be Not Proud"


The poem “Death be not proud” by John Donne was another good poem, it was basically about how death thinks he special  because it has the power to life, but he really is not because he has to take everyone’s life, it does not matter who you are. So that pretty much saying that he is a slave to everyone out there. The reason why death is not at all powerful is because there are also other things that can take our lives such as sickness and poison. Also even though death can take our life, when we go to the afterlife, and doing that time we are living forever and death seizes to exist. What I got from this poem was to live your life because nothing is guarantee, and it gives me a whole new perspective on what life mean.  It makes me feel bad about the ones that are out there sick, fighting for their lives. Not knowing what to expect they just live their lives and wait till death takes them away. Other than that I think John Donne is a very inspirational.
