When the Madness Is Poetic

 
 
At the midnight hour
 
When the moon light’s shower
 
Sparks the dreaded cunnings from within the dark illness
 
Lenore’s visage is wrested away from the face of oddness
 
As Prince Prospero feigns a giddiness
 
While the pernicious host lingers to wait upon Fortunato
 
To torment him with his fatal amour to the casted Amontillado
 
Alas! a ghastly evil eye has entered the room in flaunt
 
Appearance of Monsieur Dupin’s and Usher’s time in cursed haunt
 
And devastation upon both innocence and evilness
 
As both live as one face within the poet’s madness.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Homage to Edgar Allan Poe
