D.K. McKenzie—Warwick poet, pianist, and founder of The Poe Underground, a spoken word and music project—plays an original, improvised keyboard solo under his recording of Love Is Love by Sir Edward Dyer.


Love Is Love

The lowest trees have tops, the ant her gall,

The fly her spleen, the little spark his heat,

The slender hairs cast shadows, though but small,

And bees have stings, although they be not great,

Seas have their source, and so have shallow springs,

And love is love in beggars and in kings,

Where waters smoothest run, there deepest are the fords,

The dial stirs yet none perceives it move,

The firmest faith is found in fewest words,

The turtles do not sing, and yet they love,

True hearts have ears and eyes, no tongues to speak,

They hear and see, and sigh, and then they break.


Watch D.K. create his keyboard solo.

Check out The Poe Underground.
