such a great teacher and friend
besides his general brilliance
and comprehensive command
of his subject is that
he lets us play truant
to our fates for a while
because what death teaches
is that we don’t need
what he teaches
that we can love life absolutely
but we have to pay to go there
to his private school
to find that out
and that we can deepen
our sincerity about everything
as an equal in the seven worlds
if we just try not to pretend
to be so selfless all the time

This one gave me a dark lol. Like a piece of morion. You're very much after the Elizabethans here, def a conceit of a poem. Your ending took me. Particularly inspired viewing point.
