Edgar Allan Poe’s most popular poem, “The Raven,” tells the story of a man who gets a late-night visit from a mysterious bird that speaks only one word: “Nevermore.” | Sounds like a pretty simple story, right? | Guess again!
—Knowing Poe [Annotated Version of ‘The Raven’] (Maryland Public Television)
Over many a quaint and curious entry of unblogged lore–
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my office door.
“‘Tis some advisee,” I muttered, “tapping at my office door–
Only this and nothing more.”
…Quoth my keyboard, “Blog some more!”

No interior yet. Getting there. Gotta start somewhere. Low-poly background detail for a medieval theater…

Oops! Think the www messed it up. Thanks.
I can always depend upon your weblog to come up with something to stir me to research. Love Poe and have a brick from a house in which he briefly resided and an Edgar doll (purchased through the EAP museum website) overlooking me constantly as I write. Unfortunately, I learned much of "The Raven" phonetically for recitation, and much like the Polish songs I can still sing from grade school, I never understood what I was speaking or singing! I have bookmarked the website mentioned, and copied your blog entry to my own in the name of research. Thank you, sir!
