"Batter my heart, three personed God"/ similie
"Batter my heart, three personed God" by John Donne is a very interesting poem! I am not exactly sure what it is about, but like always I have an idea. I am taking this poem literally, and I think it is really about God. "As yet but knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend." This is saying that God always knocks, and wants to be a part of our life. However do we always listen? "That I may rise and stand." This means that when God calls, we should rise and stand before Him. "I, like an usurped town, to another due." Truthfully, I just know this is an example of a simile, and I am not sure what it is about. I took from this poem that the speaker is saying that we are all sinners. He is asking God to cleans us and accept us even though we have done wrong. I know that God always forgives us.
