Ligeia, Annabel Lee, and Berenice, Supernal beauties, pleasing to the eye,Were temporary mates and marble-cheekedLike timeless funerary monuments.Tremaine’s Rowena, Lady Madeline,Insidiously felled and pushed offstage,Had met goth’s Mister Goodbar on the page.First, females got top billed — — then burying.What makes an author kill his heroines?[Source: "Poe and His Women" a poem by LindaAnn LoSchiavo; first published by Bewildering Stories Magazine, 2019]
