A Dream Within A Dream
Edgar Allan Poe
It is a rather biased poem in all its state, but nevertheless, you are entitled to your opinion. I found it a bit more prose-like than I prefer. Overall, it was not easy figuring the indistinguishable change in tone, which I think I may have found, if I'm right.
One of the real nuggets of the Beat lexicon. A real classic of the Beat Generation.
