It's Supposed To Be Based On Edgar Allen Poe - Tumblr Posts

Once upon a midnight dreary, when clouds flittered, dark and eerie,
The shining moon hidden behind their ghastly, appalling vapor,
I went walking on that overshadowed path, not even talking,
When I heard something roar, something savage, across the moor.
“It’s the wind,” I told myself. “Couldn’t be anything more-
It would be best to ignore.”
Despite the horrid rustling, I kept on doggedly hustling,
Before the angry sky could pour, across the darkened land I tore,
Out of my chest my heart beating, every stride, fighting, competing,
Against some beast of decrepit yore, worse than a ferid boar.
I ran towards my front door, to the safe place that I do adore
— Better than being done for!
