Poe-Poe-Poe-Poe

Even here in 2019 we speak of EDGAR ALLAN POES' works.POES' THE RAVEN 'caught attention and still lingers with us today as a macabre piece as well as a literary piece of history.POES' death also was mysterious and people are still questioning this.HE was 40 at the time of his death.HE accomplished so much in his short life.Although recognized as a great writer he made little money doing it.

POE had faced tragedy in his short life.HIS mom died when he was three years old.HE later had foster parents their last name was ALLAN that is where that part of his name derives from.Later his step mom died another void in his ltfe unfilled more sorrow ,more grief.

Some of POES'younger days--POES real parents were actors and he had a yen to be an actor too.POE moved onward but struggled with alcohol as well as OPIOIDS.His life seemed to be full of underpinings of death.

POE overcame obstacles and today we read his poems and stories and still enjoy them .I think his pieces will be read yet for upcoming generations.
