To His Coy Mistress is a poem by Donne. Donne was a metaphysical poet, meaning his poems were conceited. A conceited poem is like a normal poem, but it takes itself way too seriously. For this reason, conceited poems often have long, extended metaphors that no one but the poet and their relatives care about.
