CONCEITS

DEFINITION Very elaborate comparisons between unlikely objects Strained metaphor Device often used by metaphysical poets (early 17th century-highly intellectual, philosophical, and unconventional imagery i.e. John Donne)

EXAMPLES Your mind and you are our Sargasso Sea.” “Portrait d’une Femme” by Ezra Pound

The Flea by John Donne Mark by this flea, and mark in this, How little that which thou deniest me is; Me it sucked first, and now sucks thee, And in this flea our two bloods mingled be; A sin, or shame, or loss of maidenhead, Yet this enjoys before it woo, And pampered swells with one blood made of two, And this, alas, is more than we would do.

That flea is luckier than me! Oh stay, three lives in one flea spare, Where we almost, nay 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 are met, And cloistered in these living walls of jet Though use make you apt to kill me Let not that, self murder added be, And sacrilege, three sins in killing three.

What did that poor flea ever do to you?!? 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 sucked from thee? Yet thou triumph’st, and say’st that thou Find’st not thy self nor me the weaker now’ ‘Tis true; then learn how false fears be; Just so much honor, when thou yield’st to me, Will waste, as this flea’s death took life from thee.

Middle Age and Ornamental Frog Middle age is an ornamental frog squatting in the middle of a quiet residential street facing east on a Sunday morning. It asks, “Where have I been?” and “What have I done?” It looks longingly at the sunrise and hopes for something more.
