Edgar Allen Poe and My Poetry

My poetry ignites a giant flame, that begins to flow, and continuously grow. I enter the morbid mind of that legendary name, and I hear the demonic laugh of Edgar Allen Poe! My poetry is like a continuous fire, fueled by a huge dose of inspiration. This legendary poet wraps me in barbed-wire, taking me back to his generation! A wicked grin, as I push my writing pen across the white blood spotted page. Hypnotized, I am baptized in the blood of his sin, thus begins the dark rage! Demonic thoughts take over me, and my personality is metamorphosed to the dark side. As I read Poe's Poetry, I'm consumed by his energy, and I metamorphose from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde! My poetry opens unknown doors, and follows that dark path of Edgar Allen Poe. The couplet's are blowing up like C-4, and swimming in a bloodbath of woe! The creativity comes from deep within, and I see Poes poetry in my mind's eye. I'm swallowed into obscurity for my sin, and the poetry in me follows the way of the Samurai! So as I'm continuously inspired, I'll keep writing till I come to the end of the rainbow. And although the great poet has expired, I'll keep fighting to promote the works of Edgar Allen Poe!
