#OTD 1839 William Burton agreed to hire Poe as assistant editor of “Burton’s Magazine,” at a salary of $10 a week.

Mr. Poe is heading out. See you later.

Welp….Mr. Poe is going offline. Time to see family I don’t like. Need to practice my fake smile and fake laugh. Mr. Poe’s inner politician will have to appear.

Only son (youngest child) graduates from college today. And family I avoid have decided to show up.

A life filled with grief
in self pity I languish
afflicted with sadness
anguish

Everyday is torment and torture
a care free life has been abolished
concern overtakes me
forever anguished
