Premium Member Edgar Allen Poe

Edgar Allen Poe,
The infamously crazy poet we all know.
His story of " The tell-tale heart "
Is just plain nutty from the start!

Edgar Allen Poe

Edgar Allen Poe
Shocked the world with darkened prose.
To form in minds the various frights 
And keep them waking through the nights.

Premium Member The Irrepressible Gracie Allen

Find here a tribute to one of the cleverest gals
To ever grace a show biz locale

   She mused that parties 'stand' for a platform
   For which voters 'fall' by the swarm

Premium Member Burns and Allen

Mr. George Burns
In a movie played 'God'
  Hilarious, comedic head
  On such a laughable bod...

His wife Gracie
Acted totally spacy
  Her humor dazzling
  Via daffiness frazzling

Hope By Allen Argueta 7th Grade

I believe, I believe
we can do this together.
One step at a time
as long as we work
together as one.

We can do this
even if we don't
make it, we'll be
together always
until the end.

Premium Member Edgar Allen Poe

19th century writer, Edgar Allen Poe -
Romance and the macabre to his readers he would show.
Those who study literature likely know the poem “Lenore”
and that famous line of his: Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

To Edgar Allen Poe

We never met
unlike in my dreams on a moving jet
shrouded in the blackness to come
counting the dead on my fingers and thumb
a toast to you and your etiquette form
a roast to you and forget the norm
for we love the void
we live in the void
the Moors are calling
and to our death we are falling
til we meet in the pit of blackness
I will write of your greatness.
Form: Rhyme

Allen Ginsberg

Allen Ginsberg
Where have you gone?
We need you in this world right now
We are frightened and alone

You were a shining light through the darkness
Through the '50's you held strong
Even though society said 
Everything about you was wrong

You were a beacon of freedom
Let your words always ring true
You will always be a hero of mine
May God always shine his light on you

Premium Member alley cat of Allen town

ebony like a puma, velvet pretty
she prowls and growls and moans in her sleep
like a little black dress, fashionably chic and insightful
there is purring now, her dreams might have shifted
the toms in the alley remain in hiding, fearful
she can be such a tease, and sometimes a torment
her scratches are serious; she is not afraid to bite
the howling and growling is back
alley cat of Allentown

Premium Member Diamonds In the Rough - Collabo With Allen Poe

Diamonds in the rough

Let's do us both a favor
and choose to be free
let go all insecurities
and strive for simplicity
eyes wide shut
immune to
doubt and mistrust
our very own window seat
on a passionate bus

Allen Poe

Let's share this window seat
arms entwined
souls speak
take in breathless peace
trust and serenity
admire our blissful view
the many eclectic horizons
of me and you
if only we'd trust
we would be unbreakable
Diamonds in the rough
