The goal of this is to allow us as a staff to spend as much time with the students as possible. We take the students to a surprise location where we will spend a few hours and then bring them back to the church for pickup.

The poem Sonnet 129 focuses on human lust and its inevitable stages of shame. Shakespeare promotes the theme that as a result of lust there is only corruptness‚ whether it be while one is “in pursuit” (9) (in the future tense)‚ “in possession” (in the present tense)‚ or after the fact (in the past tense) when it proves “a very woe” (11). The negativity of lust is extremely reinforced in only the third line of the poem with a chain of adjectives to describe lust: “Is perjured‚ murderous‚ bloody

In Sonnet 129 by William Shakespeare‚ the speaker emphasizes his regret and hatred to performing in shameful sexual acts because of lust.

The speaker proclaims that Death is nothing more than a powerless‚ serene slave that everyone will experience. John Donne personifies death as mortal and something that should not be feared or dreaded. The poem basically discusses victory over death. Death is not as strong as people make it out to be.
