Delirium and Delight The Poetry of Edgar Allan Poe

Delirium and Delight The Poetry of Edgar Allan Poe This post on Edgar Allan Poe poetry is sponsored by  Flatiron Books, publishers of His Hideous Heart, a collection of 13 of Edgar Allan Poes most unsettling tales reimagined. 13 young adult authors 13 heart-stopping tales This collection will delight longtime Poe fans just as much as readers who havent read the classics” (Beth Revis). When he was 20 years old, Edgar Allan Poe (1809â€"1849) wrote Alone, considered by esteemed Poe scholars as one of his greatest poems. Alone is the most personally revealing of all Poes poetry: it conveys the alienation Poe experienced from society and from his friends, his preoccupation with death and the superstitious, Poes sadness at the extremities of his life, and the sorrowful realization that he is incapable of change: his destiny was seen in the heavens above. “Alone” From childhood’s hour I have not been As others wereâ€"I have not seen As others sawâ€"I could not bring My passions from a common springâ€" From the same source I have not taken My sorrowâ€"I could not awaken My heart to joy at the same toneâ€" And all I lov’dâ€"I lov’d aloneâ€" Thenâ€"in my childhoodâ€"in the dawn In a most stormy lifeâ€" was drawn From every depth of good and ill The mystery which binds me stillâ€" From the torrent, or the fountainâ€" From the red cliff of the mountainâ€" From the sun that ‘round me roll’d In its autumn hint of goldâ€" From the lightning in the sky As it pass’d me flying byâ€" From the thunder, and the stormâ€" And the cloud that took the form (When the rest of Heaven was blue) Of a demon in my viewâ€" Poe sees the demonâ€"while the rest of us saw a blue heaven. At 20 years old, Poes awareness of his deep alienation was the beginning of his brilliant literary career that produced  over 50 poems, 77 short stories, and innumerable essays. Poe began his literary life as a poet. Some of these great poetic works, especially  The Raven, Annabel Lee, and The Bells, have become embedded in the consciousness of Poe readers. It is the rhythm, the meter that makes Poes poetry brilliant and distinctive. The repetition of rhyming words, phrases repeated within the same line, a sonorous and compelling poetic voice that plays on the readers emotions from terror to sadness and joy and back again to terror is what defines Poes poetry. Has anyone not shed a tearâ€"real or imaginaryâ€"when first reading Annabel Lee and the love that was envied by angels? Indeed, Poe developed strict rules for poetry and perceived poetry to be the rhythmical creation of beauty. Is it possible Poes obsessions with death and beauty can be tracked back to his turbulent childhood? Unfortunately, Poes childhood evolved into a chaotic and sometime self-destructive adolescence and adulthood. Alcohol was the friend who helped when Poe needed to deaden his senses against the tragedies of his life. Poe was born in Boston, 1809. His father, David Poe, was an alcoholic actor and the son of a Revolutionary War hero. David Poe abandoned young Edgar and his wife, Elizabeth, a popular stage actress, shortly after Edgars birth. When he was two years old, Poe became an orphan when Elizabeth suffered an untimely death. Poe was fortunate to find a benefactor, John Allan, and went to live with the wealthy tobacco merchant in Richmond, Virginia. Then came expulsion from the University of Virginia for drinking and gambling debtsâ€"which John Allan refused to pay. Poes next move was to  join the army, then enrolling in West Point to become an army officer. Poes West Point career was cut short from his refusal to attend chapel and avoiding classes. Poe then settled in Baltimore with his paternal aunt, Maria Clem, and his 8-year-old cousin, Virginia, whom Poe would marry when she was 13. Poe would move to the Bronx, New York, Philadelphia, and finally to Baltimore, and wrote for several literary magazines and journals. Towards the end of his all too brief life, Poe was able to support himself on his literary worksâ€"selling his autograph and giving lectures and readings. Let us revel in the poetry of the brilliant Edgar Allan Poe excerpted below. Death and revelation, obsessive love accompanied with premature death, beauty and despair, have never  sounded better. Spirits of the Dead Be silent in that solitude, Which is not lonelinessâ€"for then The spirits of the dead, who stood In life before thee, are again In death around thee, and their will Shall overshadow thee; be still. The night, though clear, shall frown, And the stars shall not look down From their high thrones in the Heaven With light like hope to mortals given, But their red orbs, without beam, To thy weariness shall seem As a burning and a fever Which would cling to thee for ever. The Raven Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten loreâ€" While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber doorâ€" Only this and nothing more.” Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token, And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, “Lenore!” This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenore!” Merely this, and nothing more. Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning, Soon I heard again a tapping somewhere louder than before. “Surely,” said I, “surely there is something at my window lattice: Let me see: then, what threat is, and this mystery exploreâ€" Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore;â€" ’Tis the wind and nothing more!” Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter, In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore; Not the least obeisance made he; not an instant stopped or stayed he: But, with mien of lord or lady perched above my chamber doorâ€" Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber doorâ€" Perched, and sat, and nothing more. But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour. Nothing farther then he utteredâ€"not a feather then he flutteredâ€" Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown beforeâ€" On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.” Then the bird said “Nevermore.” Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken, “Doubtless,” said I, “what it utters is the only stock and store Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful Disaster Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden boreâ€" Till the dirges of his Hope that melancholy burden bore Of ‘Neverâ€"nevermore.’ But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling, Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door: Then, upon the velvet  sinking, I betook myself to linking Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yoreâ€" What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore Meant in croaking “Nevermore.” And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting, On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming, And the lamp-light o’er his streaming throws his shadow on the floor; And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be liftedâ€"nevermore! The Bells I. Hear the sledges with the bellsâ€" Silver bells! What a world of merriment their melody foretells! How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle, In the icy air of night! While the stars that over sprinkle All the Heavens, seem to twinkle With a crystalline delight; II. Hear the mellow wedding bellsâ€" Golden bells! What a world of happiness their harmony foretells! Through the balmy air of night How they ring out their delightâ€" From the molten-golden notes And all in tune, What a liquid ditty floats To the turtle-dove that listens while she gloats On the moon! IV. Hear the tolling of the bellsâ€" Iron bells! What a world of solemn thought their monody compels! In the silence of the night How we shiver with affright At the melancholy meaning of the tone! For every sound that floats From the rust within their throats Is a groan. And the peopleâ€"ah, the people They that dwell up in the steeple All alone. Annabel Lee For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee: And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Leeâ€" And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of my darlingâ€"my darlingâ€"my life and my bride, In her sepulchre down by the seaâ€" In her tomb by the sounding sea.
