Much I marveled this ungainly fowl to hear discpurse so painly, though its answer little meaning-little revelancy bore; for we cannot help agreeing that no living human being ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door-Bird or beats upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door, with such name as nevermore.

To start with, the man is crazy. WHen the bird innitially knocked on the door he panicked, but a normal person would have just gone and opened the door. He then asks the raven all these questions, but the bird can only say 'nevermore' so the man thinks he is doomed. The poem in itself is not 'spooky' it is just inside the mans head.

It is amazing the such an awkward bird could speak so plainly, although what it said made no sense; no one has had good things come from having a bird above his bedroom door, either birds or beasts sitting on a scuptured statue above his bedroom door, especially named "nevermore"
Quoth the raven "nevermore"
This is only part of the poem. Is it this part you don't understand or all of it? Good luck

This is only a small part of the poem...in the whole he is sad because he lost the love of his life Lenore. The Raven symbolizes his loneliness.

The whole poem is sad. He true love has died. He is lonely and hurting. Some people believe that the Raven Or some say crow signifies death. so that the Raven coming for him is death. Death of his heart. His broken heart.

First of all, shouldn't you be doing you're own homework?!?!?!
It's about Death, the poem is called The Raven. The Raven represents loneliness...but poems are meant to be open to interpretation....so what you feel the poem is about is your opinion! It's the beauty of poetry.

..Dunce is yet another call for stupid who's criticizing love sonnets that he wrote yet did no longer win the hearts of ladies and ended up in interior the female's trunk and forgotten. the guy interior the poem has a similar opinion with Dunce that love poems are in simple terms sparkling bubbles with one element as that's subject, yet this poem he's writing will extremely make Soloman's love poems stable or maybe make immortal, in simple terms with the aid of the attempt he has made, the names that are hid in Dunce's love poems.

The bird is the symbol of death that ominously lingers so close by.
