Poem
Darkness Where Now Poe And Raven Reside, (Part Five) - Of Six Total Among the hideous, Poe's great love stood Annabel, her beauty shining so well Wretched souls glaring, free them if she could From agony of this malignant hell. She watched as Master Poe walked away Noticing his limping, unsteady gait And that broken smile as if to her say I am sorry at your accursed Fate. A glimpse of love and pity others lack Perhaps a glimmer of- its not too late Sweetest message- darling I want you back You will see my clever plan just you wait. Then onto the stage a small cage was brought Its covering removed, there hissed a snake With green dripping fangs, Annabel it sought She knew, her very life was at a stake! Seeing upon stage, black bag Poe had dropped She raced over to find short sword inside With it perhaps now the snake she could stop As it was flowing with its coming slide. Those watching this horrific scene went wild With swiftest motion cutting off its head Then overcome, she cried like a small child Asking, is it, really and truly dead? Its gushing black blood pouring at her feet Again the crowd, gave her cheering applause Such beloved hero to that snake defeat Then a booming voice caused all there to pause. The Hero had returned, sword in his hand Annabel to save, he ran to her side Shouting, my Fate, freeing all in this land No longer my destiny will I hide! With that heard, Poe every gate key threw Save one he had given Hero before Love had said, her release is overdue For its help, Poe fallen down to implore. Now poor wretched souls saw Hope was alive Raven was summoned to stop their mad flight Freedom's promise, on its lights they did thrive But Raven had great powers in his might! Robert J.
