Poem-a-Day April 28: Lenore (I Miss You)

Hello Friends —

Today's poem is a hip-hop interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe's "Lenore" by the nerd rapper (and inspiring young poetry educator) MC Lars.

Click play below to listen. If desired, you can find Lars' lyrics here, and Poe's original poem here.

If you have time, also check out the rest of Lars' Poe album, and this really excellent lecture Lars gave at USC. Then see how you do on this quiz from the Hip-Hop Shakespeare Company.

Enjoy.
Ellen
