Interesting elements for psychological analysis. More to it than To Helen, but I prefer Annabel Lee for the sick rhymes.

This is poem number #18*** since I began the Poe-athon a few days back, and this again is a beautiful and moving poem.
He does evoke emotion in you, even in these short works.
There is still a stack of Poe to go, so the Poe-athon will be on for a while!





*** It would be so much easier to see this information if Goodreads would restore most read authors.
Just another observation on how you should listen to your customer base and restore a useful tool instead of removing it without good reason.

Lenore is another of Poe’s poems that had me debating my rating, another three-point-five-star read that I rounded down. As is the case with most of Poe’s work, this was an easy to read poem that has you hooked throughout. It flows well, it keeps you hooked throughout, but I would not label it my favourite from the author. It’s certainly worth the read for fans of the author’s poetry, though.

I thought this was an interesting poem.

I do love Edgar Allan Poe's wordplay and his dark and sad style. It is cathartic and beautiful.
