Poe's Poetry

Poe's Poetry by Edgar Allan Poe

Poe's Poetry is most known for its dark and Gothic themes. These poems typically discuss passion and death; the ornate language, high emotion-usually despair-and complex rhyme schemes all contribute to a claustrophobic feeling of horror and bleakness. From a demonic apparition of a raven to a lament for a lost bride-to-be, the exaggerated imagery that the poet uses drives home the themes of mortality and madness.
