"The man who smiles when he is wrong has found someone else to blame his problem on."
Yet Another Poem From Another Time
This is after I read "Fall of the House of Usher"
I felt it just needed a poem, and I was bored out of my mind in English, so here goes...

Usher's Line
By: Ren
Upon a marshy bog,
There lived a man quite alone,
With only his sister and the fog.

I came to him, for I was his friend alone,
He wished for company, and I was just so inclined.
For surely as it went, the days fell by,

Came often upon a sober find.
She died soon after, but that may have been a lie.
We did lock her up and soon forgot

The corpse growing rot
Beneath our feet a story told,
To chase off dear Usher's mental fright

A ghastly ghost was she, as even more as dying,
Before me collapsed on Usher,
My mind, my heart fled not long after.

And as I turned the final chapter,
Down back to hell, the house did vanish,
With both its childern, Roderick and Madeline.

Yeah, I kinda got carried away and lost the rhyme half-way through, but I like it alot, and it gave me something to do as I listened to my American Literature teacher blather on and on about nothing....
