Edgar Allan Poe Fav Poems:

Serenade
so sweet the hour, so calm the time,
i feel it more than half a crime,
when nature sleeps and stars are mute,
to mar the silence ev'n with a lute.
at rest o ocean's brillant dyes
an image of elysium lies:
seven pleiades entranced in heaven,
from in the deep another seven:
endymion nodding from above
sees in the sea a second love.
within the valleys dim and brown,
and on the sprectral mountain's crown,
the wearied light is dying down,
and earth, and stars, and sea, and sky
are redolent of sleep, as i
am redolent of thee and thine
enthralling love, my adeline.
but list, o list-- so softand low
thy lover's voice tonight shall flow,
that, scarce awake, thy soul shall deem
my words the music of a dream.
thus. while now single sound too rude
upon they slumber shall intrude,
our thoughts, our souls--o God above!
in every deed shall mingle, love.

Alone
from childhood's hour i have not been
as others were--i have not seen
as others saw--i could not bring
my passions from a common spring.
from the same source i have not taken
my sorrow; i could not awaken
my heart to joyat the same tone;
and all i lov'd, i lov'd alone.
then--in my childhood--in the dawn
of a most stormy life--was drawn
from ev'ry depth of good and ill
the mystery which binds me still:
from the torrent, or the fountain,
from the red cliff of the mountain,
from the sun that 'round me roll'd
in its autumn tint of gold--
from the lightening in the sky
as it pass'd me flying by--
from the thunder of the storm,
and the cloud that took the form
(when the rest of heaven was blue)
of a demon in my view.

more of my fav poems will be posted later^^

and one of my favorites is Taylor Mali

The the impotence of proofreading
By Taylor Mali
www.taylormali.com

Has this ever happened to you?
You work very horde on a paper for English clash
And then get a very glow raid (like a D or even a D=)
and all because you are the word¹s liverwurst spoiler.
Proofreading your peppers is a matter of the the utmost impotence.

This is a problem that affects manly, manly students.
I myself was such a bed spiller once upon a term
that my English teacher in my sophomoric year,
Mrs. Myth, said I would never get into a good colleague.
And that¹s all I wanted, just to get into a good colleague.
Not just anal community colleague,
because I wouldn¹t be happy at anal community colleague.
I needed a place that would offer me intellectual simulation,
I really need to be challenged, challenged dentally.
I know this makes me sound like a stereo,
but I really wanted to go to an ivory legal collegue.
So I needed to improvement
or gone would be my dream of going to Harvard, Jail, or Prison
(in Prison, New Jersey).

So I got myself a spell checker
and figured I was on Sleazy Street.

But there are several missed aches
that a spell chukker can¹t can¹t catch catch.
For instant, if you accidentally leave a word
your spell exchequer won¹t put it in you.
And God for billing purposes only
you should have serial problems with Tori Spelling
your spell Chekhov might replace a word
with one you had absolutely no detention of using.
Because what do you want it to douch?
It only does what you tell it to douche.
You¹re the one with your hand on the mouth going clit, clit, clit.
It just goes to show you how embargo
one careless clit of the mouth can be.

Which reminds me of this one time during my Junior Mint.
The teacher read my entire paper on A Sale of Two Titties
out loud to all of my assmates.
I¹m not joking, I¹m totally cereal.
It was the most humidifying experience of my life,
being laughed at pubically.

So do yourself a flavor and follow these two Pisces of advice:
One: There is no prostitute for careful editing.
And three: When it comes to proofreading,
the red penis your friend.
