That Poe believed he was the image of Annibel Lee imposed an eerie intrigue, One that may have led to a forelone truth unlike most boulevard nights. While Poe retains an ostentacious reprieve of notoriety, his chosen captivity to be rid of endless jests and charm, perhaps is his motive for ensuing his idyllic ambivalence in a love that aspires to a futile rationale, and further ineptness for posterity. Annibel is as clever as he is in a more desireable pursuit, yet Poe makes only another dismissal of his own clever psycho-drama. I enjoyed it. Yet, I felt that like Caligula there is no real integrity in their supplication of their dispositions. "The Tale" comes as an unwanted attrition that is imposed upon as an interference. In fact with their primary ambitiousness and pose, that is already bleak and daunting in Poe's writing of "The Tell Tale heart", as is his dark animosity for depiction of character.
