“Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there . . . dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.” — Edgar Allan Poe
(“Master of the Macabre”. Best known as a Baltimoreon, Poe was actually born in Boston, raised mainly in Virginia, and he spent a good amount of time in the state of New York. Upstate in Saratoga Springs, the Turtle Bay section of Manhattan, and the Fordham section of the Bronx, just to name a few. He had tumultuous life, and died at the age of 40, of some very speculative causes, although he was a known alcoholic. I remember reading a bunch of his short stories in junior high, now called middle school. Fun, creepy reads! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

For me also in my student life, Poe was my favorite author with his tales from beyond the grave. He died very early but his tumultuous life led him to it. A hug YUR
