  • on The Tyger by William Blake, on April 18, 2004
    First read this in fourth grade. I liked it but didn't understand it until later. It seems like the speaker's puzzling about evil (the devil being the "tyger"). "Did he who made the lamb make thee?"--Did God create the devil too?

  • on The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe, on March 19, 2004
    Does this need anymore comments? Oh well, Mr. Poe, you do fine work. Yessum, you do. I hope you post more soon! jkjk! Jeez, what can I say? Personally, I just think it's just a huge metaphor, the raven being sorrow that will never go away. I'm pretty sure his wife was already sickly when he wrote it, but don't quote me on that. I first read this last year, and I didn't get the last part, or I was majorly let down by it (so I'm assuming I didn't get it). Now I see that it has to be one of the most perfect endings ever. Doesn't it just resonate? Anyhow, I have my aunt's E.A Poe book from 1969 or whenever, and it just sits on my desk cuz it's so big. Favorite book. I've read Eldorado, Annabel Lee, and a couple others. But this is the best. Hands down. I could read it over and over...I think I shall memorize it just for the heck of it...hehe
