Digging down deep!
*Edgar Allen Poe,* *He did some sombre poems sow,* *Was it the Raven, or the crow?* *Nevermore, he spoke of light,* *Or anything remotely bright,* *In death he did delight,* *A ready friend at hallows wean,* *Got downright dirty, real mean,* *Scare the hell out of many a teen,* *With dirt of graves, he scratched,* *The papers deep, of hope detached,* *When sombre thoughts he hatched,* *I wonder, how he is my friend,* *Sinister he was, right to the end,* *Sombre bells, toll for this gent.*

Great performance in your poem, J-H, and so kept to Poe's life!
"Scare the hell out of many a teen..." How true this is; reading his short stories at 15 was a chilling experience. Then, reading his works in later years, I've concluded him to be master of the macabr�. His poetry...The Raven my very favorite; not far behind is Annabel Lee. The meter of both are...genius!
Blessings and Love and Appreciation! ~~ Micke

But what a powerful storyteller he was. I still enjoy reading many of his tales, especially The Raven.

...and, believe or not, he's still around, using others people quills to create more of those morbid and bloodcurling stories.
Sir Edgar walks inside many authors without they knowing it.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
