Comment from TAB_that's me
I've always found The Raven to be haunting and creepy and for you to dream about Lenore is a bit creepy too but yet, just your style:) I found this to be exceptionally well written, thus the 6 stars, but just as haunting and creepy and The Raven (thus again the 6 stars).

I really think Poe has been reincarnated as you. You did an excellent job in incorporating everything I love about Poe and making it your own.
Too think this came from a dream. I have created short story's from my dreams, But none as good as what you have written here.
Your mind never ceases to amaze me. Great job.

Comment from Cedar
This is another exceptional piece of work. I realize it must take a great deal of work and time composing this type of poetry and you're becoming an expert at it. The pictures and the perfect sound to match each piece, I would imagine requires a great deal of thought. And, then your poetry is also perfect in its rhyme, rhythm and flow. You've got everything going your way, keep it up. Bill

This is an outstanding poem,
so beautifully written, tells a grim
tale of a nightmare experience.
Well done, thank you for sharing.

Comment from Ric Myworld
Wow, is about all I can say. What an outstanding poem that will have me cutting holes in my quilt so that I can see from under the covers. Afraid to sleep tonight, that I might dream. Thanks for another great poem. (Above is what I wrote before, and there isn't much more I can say, than, Wow!) :-)

Comment from Ridley Williams
LENO...Ah, never mind,...if it gives you nightmares. Although, now that I think about it, when I first started reading your work, it was always in the evenings, before I went to bed. A mistake I quickly rectified, lol. Paybacks a bitch, eh?
Seriously, I relate to your feelings of unease upon waking from such an incident. I have had dreams recently that seemed incredibly real; silly things really, but un-nerving to the point I got up and reviewed for a while, just to put some other images in my head. Brrr. Creepy write here, Dean, what with the back story and all. Damn!
Hey, that reminds me, after a weird dream the other night I got up and started a piece that's right up your ally. Got a moment to take a peek at a w.i.p and throw me some thoughts? Let me know and I'll PM it to you, thanks for the interesting read, buddy, Bill

Thanks fro the great review, Bill.

Comment from Margaret Snowdon
As I've said before, Dean, your work is
unique - the content, the flow to the
words, and to both rhythm and rhyme,
always exceptional - and the atmosphere
you set through them, most incredible.
Such a sorrowful write, my friend.

Comment from Alan K Pease
Quadruple is your bad luck below a raven, black cat a black rose and the sight of crumbling of someone cursed by death in murder's only name. Rem sleep can sometimes lead to bad dreams. I am glad you shared this experience with us and this spirit world is only there to reflect on - an experience in the past.

Comment from justatuna
Great write, Dean. To me, this is as good as the original. You really are an incredible writer. Not just in poetic device, as there are many who can do that, but in your imagination and intelligence. Only thing that caught my eye was, "making no sound, nary a peep." Isn't that the same thing? I'm no writer so I don't know. It just caught my attention. Exceptional write. Love the song. One of my favorites. Be good my friend.

Thanks so much, juatatuna, I sincerely appreciate that glowing review and your kind comments.
Yes, they are essentially the same thing, but I noticed when studying Poe's work, he does this frequently, too. He'll say a phrase, or a line, then repeat it in a slightly different way for effect. Trying to follow as closely to his regimen as I could, I worded it thus.
Thanks so much, again my friend!

Cool. I appreciate that as I'm always trying to learn. Be good.
