This was the first of my Edgar Alan Poe influenced poems I wrote after Maya Angelou meantored to me for a while, and part of her suggestions, she game me many suggestions, one was to study the writing of edgar Alan Poe. She even told me which things to look for and study in great detail, which I did. (They will be in my Memoirs.) Another favorite influence his writing had on me was the beauty of Ligea, and I wrote several poems about her. I sincerely believe there was never really an Annabelle Lee, but if there was, it was more probably Ligea.
