When you’re feeling peckish,

If your feeling blue,

Settle in the study

Where a raven ‘s watchin’ you.

He’s comp’ny when you’re reading

And turn a page or two.

Ever so a-Poe-priate

With a raven watching you.

Did you offer him a libation in the library?

Well, the subhead did say "A Poe Substitute for Great Literature." Nothing is ever good enough for you Baltimore people...
