I did and i though it was just weird.

I read it in year 7, I thought it was a bit dodgey.

I thought it was too long.

Aww, I love that poem! I'm quite a fan of Edgar Allan Poe though. I LOVE the structure of it, it's amazing 'cause it isn't blank or rhyming couplets, but intricately woven to ensure the result is really phonologically pleasing.

Why did you think it was weird? It's not a great narrative poem, its allure lies in the wording rather than the story behind it. It's almost...conceptual.

Quoth the raven, nevermore...
