    Edgar Allan Poe is known for his gothic poetry, and this is one of my favorites. Spirits of the Dead perfectly blends together the human mourning and mysterious nature of death, with contemplations that come from long nights he spent sitting alone, surely remembering those he had loved and lost. I often think of Poe and what writing meant to him. He struggled financially all his life, just to be able to write. This poem tells me why he wrote.

    Episode music and narration by Tynan Portillo. Intro music by Emmett Cooke on PremiumBeat.
