Nevermind the periods. I was trying to keep the formatting similar to the formatting on poetry foundation for the original poem. |

Nice work. Like peanut butter and jelly, you put together two really great things. I'm sure Frinmulaar would like to see this. |

Already did. You have made an admirable rendition of a good source. Great work preserving the rhythm, in particular the multi-line phrases. You are also the first one I remember to circumvent the 'moon' problem using a proper name. Meyz mul, zeymah. |

This is brilliant! I'm marking this as another piece to scribe in runes soon. Putting pen to paper and writing this all in runes will be invigorating, I'm sure! I'm a huge fan of Edgar Allan Poe, so I would love to do this! |

Very nice indeed! E. A. Poe is a wonderful author and poet, but I never thought to translate any to Dovahzul. I am excited to see what is next! |

A Dream Within A Dream is coming next. However, all of my work (which was frankly near completion aside from a few tricky words) was on my phone and I had not backed it up to my computer or written down a hard copy unfortunately and my phone broke, so I have (to my knowledge) lost all of my work, along with a lot of personal stuff and a ton of musical recordings and writings. I will resume working on my translation once I have explored all possible avenues of retrieving my work from the phone. Until then, if anybody would like to translate their favourite Poe-m and post it, do feel free! Or if collaoration is a fancy you divulge in, I am open to tackling any of Poe's work. Even short stories. |
