Quote the Raven Nevermore

When the Parakeet increased his squawking with the noise box ceaseless talking far louder than the muted city roar. Then I pondered that curious poem about the lost Lenore About that bedeviled man and the raven Nevermore How I envy Poe his quiet midnight when he could hear a tapping however light through the window pane or was it a chamber door when quoth that famous raven Nevermore I agree oh raven, Nevermore! Nevermore what power lies in that word I'm trading my parakeet for a silent gallows bird that knows only that single solitary noun or did he mean it as a verb? Nevermore the nightly noises that disturb television gunfights, cabs screeching off the curb neighbors who are seldom seen but always overheard The raven sought a bust of Pallas as a quiet place to perch They took me to the rest home between the firehouse and that bell ringing city church so to the end of this as must all tales for now I contemplate Poe's bells, Bells, BELLS!
