    You can hear and feel the beauty even in a mind full of pain. That's why life is always precious.
    No slither of sadness or disappointment can dim the real light within.

    I remember a friend in school who once told me he was reading Poe and I laughed at him. I remember he used to get bullied and would smell and for sure had a terrible home life. We were vague friends and he was insanely smart and kind and wore one of the sweetest smiles I've seen. A smile that when I remember it makes me weep. Taren is a beautiful person.

      @@vintagemoods In my experience, many young people can't appreciate spoken poetry because it is often about one's life experience, of which they have very little experience navigating. I hardly appreciated poetry until recently, I tried my hand at it a few times when I was much younger, but could only ever muster limericks, or anaphora. I even chastised myself for not being great at it. Now I see the beauty in all forms of artistic philosophy.

    Mark Twain gets credit as the first great American writer, the one who brought us to the world stage. But I’ve alway said it was Poe. He is known for some 15 stories of horror and madness and scant selection of his poetry but he was so much more. It work as a crisis is beautiful prose. He wrote far more comedies and dramas than horror. He pioneered the detective story (sorry Doyle) and he pioneered science fiction (sorry Wells). And he was a master essayist. His work in the craft itself is also inspiring. Any writer of any genre who dares encapsulates their works entire feeling and sensation in one single opening line owes scent of gratitude to this man. You are forever and always my eternal muse Mr. Poe and I thank you greatly

      Completely agree with everything you've said and I absolutely adore everything Poe has created with that brilliant mind of his.
      However, I'd like to advocate for Mary Shelley as the pioneer of science fiction.... rather than The Modern Prometheus I think it is her post apocalyptic vison in The Last Man that should give her the credit.

    Poe was a strange individual, but he was fully aware that he was different. He wrote about it in poems such as "All I loved I loved alone". Most of us have eccentricities but aren't aware of what they are, only others see them. Poe was gifted to see himself as he truly was. I suppose we are all strange, it's our commonality, but to face it is divine.

      He has a very rich, sonorous voice, but no one ever trained him on oration, or the reading of verse. He came to a downward inflection at the end of each, and every line in the poem, despite the thought not yet being complete. It is a major elementary principle in reading poetry (or prose, as well) that while the writer (the poet, in this instance) may even capitalize the first word of each succeeding line (as in many poems), the "sentence" is not complete until one sees the period (which means the thought is now complete). Until the period appears, one must hold an upward inflection in the voice at the end of each line in order to sustain the thought being expressed, until reaching that end point in the sentence (signified, even as in prose, by a period). And that principle holds doubly important when arriving at the end of a question posed within a poem (or prose). Even in this instance, the "orator" here chose to come to a complete declarative stop in the thought by incorporating a downward inflection at the end of the first question posed in the poem. It became a declaration of an idea rather than a question posed to the reader. He clearly is untrained as an orator, or reader of poetry. He is "getting by" on a good deep voice, but loses significantly in the impact of his reading by failing to learn the basic principles of oratory. These same principles apply to giving any kind of a speech, and holding the audience's attention within the sentence by sustained upward vocal inflection, until coming to the end of a sentence.

    • @emmettwalz
      @emmettwalz 4 роки тому +2

      If you listen to the speeches given by George W. Bush in the first months after his first election victory, you can hear this principle most clearly, as he was not able to hold his thought past two to three words within a sentence. After the Sept 11 disaster "someone" realized that his speeches needed to be "fixed" by teaching him to speak "all the words within a single thought" before coming to the end of his sentences. His speeches became far more comprehensible after that period, and for the remainder of his presidency, though he surely remained a first class dunce, and mere puppet of Cheney and the other overlords within the oligarchic power structure. He was merely more understandable in his stupidity.

    In all things of nature there is something of beauty. For everything that happens and for all that will happen, accept it for what it is and make the best use of your time, that way, you won't waste your time worrying about what will come or regret the actions that you didn't take from your past as you are being present.

    This poem gives Kafkaesque vibes. Poe writes about the absurdity of life. You try and try but your best will never be enough.

    Bittersweet. I had a dream within a dream this morning. In dream interpretation it means that my highest hopes are deferred but there is improvement in the present.

    I dont know if you read the comments, but could you please also make some videos about middle eastern philosophers like al ghazali or mevlana rumi. They also have beautiful quotes which helped me in life and in my mother tongue we have a saying which goes like:
    You should always take wisdom, no matter where it comes from. Thanks in advance.

    “A Dream Within A Dream
    Take this kiss upon the brow
    And in parting from you now
    Thus much let me avow
    You are not wrong who deem
    That my days have been a dream
    Yet if hope has flown away
    In a night or in a day
    In a vision or in a home
    Is it therefore the less is gone
    All that we see or seem
    Is but a dream within a dream
    I stand amid the roar
    Of a surf tomented shore
    And I hold within my hand
    Grains of the golden sand
    How few yet how they creep
    Through my fingers to the deep
    While I weep, while I weep
    Oh God can I not grasp
    Them with a tighter clasp
    I God can I not save
    One from the pitiless wave
    Is all that we see or seem
    But a dream within a dream”

    Take this kiss upon the brow!
    And, in parting from you now,
    Thus much let me avow -
    You are not wrong, who deem
    That my days have been a dream;
    Yet if hope has flown away
    In a night, or in a day,
    In a vision, or in none,
    Is it therefore the less gone?
    All that we see or seem
    Is but a dream within a dream.
    >>>not fully standing at the same precipice of language.
    I thank the person who spoke these lines for having spoken them; but that rendition was a passionless refusal of passion. Edgar Allen's poetry sings - do not make it sound like last Saturday's' unattended eulogy.
