So, The Tempest.

I am no Caliban, for he has affinity with Nature.
Nor am I Prospero for he is learned and wise.
I cannot be Miranda for she is innocent.

Alonso, Antonio, Sebastian all powerful or wanting to be so. 
Gonzalo both powerful and kind.
I am none of these.

Comment for week 10

Dear John,
I loved your post this week. I am always impressed by the poetry that is produced by this class, but I really enjoyed your piece.I really liked your final stanza. It really says something special about magic and illusion, these things may or may not be real, but they are certainly as real as the belief or power people give them.
Thanks for the great work.
Ali
