The Tell-tale Heart Written by Edgar Allan Poe True! Nervous -- very‚ very nervous I had been and am! But why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses -- not destroyed them.

Rumi Night on the Heights/in the Depths of St. Ignacious I am by no means a poetry fanatic. I disliked learning about their structure in middle school into high school.
