Our next reading at the Savage Chickens Literary Society is from tortured soul Edgar Allen Poe:
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams Of the weirding Prairie Thing;And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes Of the grotesque Prairie Thing;And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the sideOf my Prairie Thing, my Prairie Thing, my life and scary thing, In its sepulchre there in Kansas— In tomb by the side of Topeka. —E.A. Poe; “Prairie Thing”
