Last Halloween in Richmond
We went visiting Mr. Poe

Just a little museum
No El Dorado

I saw no bust of Pallas
Or at least they didn't show it

Just a bust with bleak black roses
Of the orphaned lonely Poe-t

I like him because he's honest
A tortured soul needs savin'

I too loved and lost a Lenore
Nevermore to know this Raven!
