For the record, I do not believe that we like Poe because we are extreme dark people but because we understand the depth of his words and can see the darkness that he is portraying...discuss...

I just did a short presentation on Poe today. He was more than likely bipolar, which (the manic periods) would have helped his creativity a bit, but would have also led to his works getting darker and more twisted over time, since the disorder also worsens over time. A lot of important historical figures were bipolar, actually.

I had to read the Black Cat, recently, for that presentation. I really liked that story. The symbolism was pretty interesting. It was interesting to see how his mind was breaking down throughout the story (which seems to happen in a few of his other stories). I also had to reread the Tell Tale Heart, which just makes me sad. Poor old man. : (

Sorry, I'm not a scorp and all that info was not necessary, but eh. His stories are pretty cool when you break them all down. They're not the type that really evoke emotion in me, though, except maybe pity for some characters like that old man.

Raises hand

Sun: Scorpio
Moon: Scorpio
Venus: Scorpio.

I enjoy his stories not for the horror or dark nature, but rather the value and depth they bring. As Scenic said, it's interesting the way he understood human motivation and what makes us tick- it's captivating to read about the human mind to me. Mystery and intrigue draw me into his stories.

I love Poe!

My favorite was The Raven 🙂
