he keats me commin' back

John Keats is a new kind of poet; he was not an aristocrat, like the two we read prior. He was born in the working-class of London. He was a great looking man and eventually went to medical school. There is absolutely no optimism in his poetry what so ever. It makes me sad, mainly because it is very depressing. His poetry is about death and quite frankly the only thing that fits the romanticism about it is that he includes random correlations to natural elements. His poetry seems to be based on his life. personally i think what makes him so different from Byron and Shelly, is that he wrote for himself. He did not have a bunch of money that he could use at his expense of writing. The other two poets had the wealth. He just loved it so much that he did it for himself because he truly loved it There is times in Keat's poetry where he does look at the hopeful sides of his topic, in this case; death.I think his poetry reflects his life and how he feels; he has a sad painful life, using certain things like alcohol to suppress those feelings.

I feel like his early death is what made him so popular in literature. He was not given a real opportunity to mess up or allow his poetry to become more and more unprecedented. How ever his poerty was a beautiful yet painful recollection of his life.
