do you want to know
what inside you grows
through the vessels flow
the essence of Poe
beating hearts of plenty
ringing bells of few
yearning has turned empty waiting for a tale or two
Annabell can hear you
wondering sorowly why
out of all the children
she had to die
now she stays locked up
locked up
in that sepulchre in the sky

Very intriguing piece - the rhyme - a little over used but nicely worded and the flow works beautifully.
