See A Dream Within - David Ellis
Thank you for purchasing this book and supporting the author with your interest in poetry.
All of the poems in this particular collection focus on a specific poetry form called Found Poetry
, where existing poems, stories, plays and other written works can be used as source material, then words/phrases are trimmed out of them to form brand new poems.
I specifically chose to write a collection of poems in honour of Edgar Allan Poe because of my fondness for his written works and especially because of his poem The Raven
. I have read it many times and it keeps on getting better every time I read it. I could also listen to James Earl Jones, Christopher Walken or Christopher Lee recite it all day long and I would still never tire of hearing the beautifully composed, elegant verses again and again.
Edgar Allan Poe wrote many gripping short stories in his lifetime, along with a handful of magnificent poems, which are the source material inspiration for this collection.
It is my intention to intimately explore and turn Edgar’s short stories into found poetry collections too, so look out for further Edgar Allan Poe themed releases in the near future.
My award-winning debut poetry collection is also still available and can be purchased at your favourite book retailers. It is called ‘Life, Sex & Death – A Poetry Collection’.
