What is likened to stiff twin compasses If they be two they are two so As stiff twin compasses are two Thy soul the fixed foo t makes no show To move but the other do?

This lines from John Donne's poem "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" compares the relationship between two souls to that of twin compasses. Just like the fixed foot of a compass remains steady as the other foot moves to draw a circle, one soul stays grounded while the other explores and moves freely. The two souls remain connected and in harmony despite being apart physically.

Why did the tower next to the twin towers fall when it had nothing to do with it?

The tower next to the twin towers fell due to the impact and debris from the collapse of the twin towers, which caused fires and structural damage that led to its collapse. The structural integrity of the building was compromised by the intense heat and force generated by the adjacent collapse.
