juie anderson " A great Bee Gees song". Are you kidding? It was a Metallica song. I read somewhere that a guy by the name of Ernest Hemingway wrote the lyrics and Metallica stiffed him. Whose to say?
He wrote a poem called The Bells, but it doesn't seem to have as dark or somber a tone as this, or as his other works. In fact, it's mostly talking about the different kinds of bells and sounds they can make and the emotions they can evoke, from sad to unstable, to even joyful or religious. It's surprising to find out it was Hemingway based on a sermon by Donne
I used to guide in St Paul Cathedral, The City of London. I often mention John Donne, his poeme I had translated into Spanish. I wanted the Spaniards to know the profound sense of solidarity there is in the English soul. The poem is Albion but it is not Perfid.
Wonderful profound poem. I looked this poem up because according to my zodiac sign libra on horoscope.com, my motto is "No man is an island," I feel this way.
