Although I do agree with Decrispino that it was hard to follow the actual thought of some of the poems, I sort of believe that that is the idea of wring them; to enagage in a little mystery, and have it be creepy at the same time.kfrancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01744123319022367614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6653953551649064360.post-32136399333887144712009-03-25T12:40:00.000-07:002009-03-25T12:40:00.000-07:00The poems were not all that bad but personally I d...The poems were not all that bad but personally I don’t like poems.

The storyline and most of the words were used in such a weird way which made it very hard to understand. I had to read the story over many times just to understand what was going on in it.

I kno you can do that but it was just so random. The poems were very random.

I didnt quite understand all the poems, but I at least have a slight grasp of the themes of the poems.

They are always full of entertainment and suspense. That is what every great story needs to have to keep people locked in. They have not disappointed yet. And their perfect stories to tell if you want to scare someone as a campfire story.

However, this is the main reason why I enjoyed them so much. They are so different from the average story that you come cross. I found all of the poems to be equally interesting in different ways. For some reason, I came to the realization that I understand the dark romantics more than any other form of literature. Although most people find them extremely confusing and complicated, I see them as interesting and fairly simple to comprehend. Overall, the dark romantics are an enjoyable and easy read for me.Ritchie Pevohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12223266135816907816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6653953551649064360.post-77085349353377568562009-01-21T04:31:00.000-08:002009-01-21T04:31:00.000-08:00I didnt like the dark romantics. they had to much ...I didnt like the dark romantics. they had to much symbolism that was hard to figure out, they had alot of twist and turns and were just plain hard to follow.

Most of them I like but a couple of them I really could not understand the whole point of the short story or poem. Such as the short story “The Fall of the House of Ushers” by Edgar Allen Poe. Also some of these poems were hard to read, so you kind of had to go over the line or versus again to interpret what the author was trying to say. But overall I enjoyed these stories and poems because they were very mysterious and ominous.viktorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06569896016540223332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6653953551649064360.post-40574336483374389412009-01-18T19:32:00.000-08:002009-01-18T19:32:00.000-08:00The dark romantics to me were very unusual and dif...The dark romantics to me were very unusual and difficult to read. Edgar Allen Poe's writings were the hardest to comprehend because of the word usage and storyline. I found it very hard to follow and concentrate when reading his peices along with many others. Therefore I did not like the dark romantics very much and hopefully I will not have to read them ever again.tydecrispinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587497139743360259noreply@blogger.com
