poet on poet action!
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
On Donne's Poetry
``With Donne, whose muse on dromedary trots,
Wreathe iron pokers into true-love knots ;
Rhyme's sturdy cripple, fancy's maze and clue,
Wit's forge and fire-blast, meaning's press and screw.''
this is what you say when you know your friend needs you to admit that you don't know what he is talking about but you really love that he just keeps talking.
it is also like this: when things seem to be changing for the ancient mariner, but not quite enough, just yet, because it takes such a long time to undo a very big wrong. sometimes the birds begin, like friends trying to help, but there is still so much and you must repent.
"Sometimes a-dropping from the sky
I heard the sky-lark sing ;
Sometimes all little birds that are,
How they seemed to fill the sea and air
With their sweet jargoning !"
