Sup /lit/. I'm doing a paper on Poe. Anyone have any opinions/insights to share on "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Black Cat," or "The Fall of The House of Usher"?

He wasn't a very good poet so I'm glad you're sticking with his short stories.

It's fun but it's not high quality poetry. It's like the Stephen King of poetry.

OH NO YOU DID NOT.

You know it to be true. 100 years from now, teenagers will read Stephen King as ardently as you read Poe.
