if done right that can be super scary in a play but i've seen attempts at it on stage that were pretty bad. _________________ there is nowhere to go but on. |

Ya it could have been better, but it was still pretty good for a high school production. _________________ Moosic is love <3 |

now let's stay on topic.....>.>...and yes!
i love poe's work. i love how all of his main characters are blank slates without any character developement. it's easier to insert your own ideas into the story that way. _________________

| i've read many of his writings and loved all but one. but i can't remember what it was called so i guess it's useless to mention it. but i will say that the dark and frightening nature of his writings is as attractive to me as "horror movies at midnight syndrome" [as i call it]: you're tired and easily sacred but you find a scary movie on and cant help but watch. but it is sad when you read a biography on him. i did one for school and his life was almost twice as dark as his writings. perhaps that was the fuel...actually i'll say it was. lol, he was the original emo. |

Is it the one from Barnes & Noble? Because I have that one too, and I know it's missing at least one poem. It's a good one too. _________________ Holy Ghost, when do you come out to play?

No, it was from Borders.
Out of curiosity, though, what poem is yours missing? _________________

It's called Alone. The poem was in a smaller compilation of his writings that I had, but I don't think it was in the "Complete Works" collection I bought. Here's how it goes:
Alone
From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were- I have not seen
As others saw- I could not bring
My passions from a common spring-
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow- I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone-
And all I lov'd- I lov'd alone-
Then- in my childhood- in the dawn
Of a most stormy life- was drawn
From ev'ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still-
From the torrent, or the fountain-
From the red cliff of the mountain-
From the sun that 'round me roll'd
In its autumn tint of gold-
From the lightning in the sky
As it passed me flying by-
From the thunder, and the storm-
And the cloud that took the form
(When all the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view. _________________ Holy Ghost, when do you come out to play?
'Cause if the Lord's gonna find me
He better start looking today
I don't care to be forgiven
I want to be forgotten
There is nothing reliable like change
Be your own god |
