FOR THE POE CENTENARY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: His peck-ability to show
Last Line: He'd make them bite the dust before him.
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb
Subject(s): Poe, Edgar Allan (1809-1849)


His Peck-ability to show,
Let Harry Thurston Peck at Poe,
And thank his stars like Matthews Brander
That Poe is silent now to slander;
Or by the scourge with which they score him
He'd make them bite the dust before him.
