The Nevermore Email (Take off of the Raven)

By Desdemona

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,over many a quaint and curious web sites of internet galore,while I waited, nearly waiting, suddenly there came a emailthe text of some email in my email door,''tis some friend,' I muttered, 'emailing me, oh what's in store?'only this and nothing more...Open it I hit get mail, when, with many a flash and flutter,Thrilled me, is there a message from many days of yore?Scared he lost me; not a minute stopped or stayed he;But with a wince, his answer lil meaning, 'I was really bored.''I write this email now, cuz I am bored;Quote the sender 'I am bored.'This I sat engaged in guessing but no syllable expressingto the man whose words so fiery; burned into my hearts core;this and more I sat divining, with my wrist at ease recliningon my jelly supporter replying, so I can type a response back like beforebut what to say? cuz he was bored, think of something like beforequote the reader, like before.Presently my words grew stronger; hesitating then no longer;Then methought of what to say, quit this email foolishness and go away!!!Nothing further I then muttered? not a word made me flutterOh what have I done, if I cause him such pain, He'll probably cry a thunderous rain; Oh the morrow he will write me, until then I feel so drainedQuote the reader 'I feel so drained.'And now I check it, never flinching still i'm sitting, still i'm sittingSir, said I, I was wrong to say that, forgive me I implore;I miss his words with such great meaning, only when I read it dreaming,And so I sit and waiting more, no reply in my email doorI made him mad, so no reply in my email door.I will get no email from him..NEVERMORE.hahaha. I wrote those based on the raven by poe, but I kept getting junk email and people writing me saying they were bored. So when i told them to get a life they got mad and never wrote me anymore hahaha.
