The text would resemble something more of "To deny that which is, and to explain that which is not."
I was thinking also of opening an Edgar Allan Poe thread, specifically because of a question:
When it comes to his poems, do you think Edgar Allan Poe was a literal person, or a symbolic one?
I say this because a friend of mine says that the raven in "The Raven" is a representation of Lenore, but I see it more obscure and "Poeish" if the raven only were because it is; with no other meaning beyond "bird or devil".
What do you think? Can the raven indeed represent Lenore?
