I dedicated this post to Dean Kuch, RIP, because he loved horror and Edgar Allan Poe as much as I do. He was inspired by Poe's writing style.

The Raven is a poem by 19th-century American poet Edgar Allan Poe. When the poem was first published in 1845, Poe likely had no idea it would become a spooky American classic over a hundred years after his death. His poetry wasn't popular during his lifetime, but "The Raven" was among the few of Poe's poems to attract the attention of his contemporaries and future poetry lovers.

Gogyohka is a five-line Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. You may use any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay. It usually doesn't rhyme, but natural not forced rhymes are okay. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe.
