Makes me think of my favorite poet, Edgar Allen Poe - Annabelle Lee and the Raven.

I can't imagine a better Haiku.
Is the illustration a montage of sorts of Southern Gothic work? I'm certain of the crow & the border (at least the style of the border)--& I'm fairly certain of the portrait (but my recollection of it isn't as clear as that of the "Crows" piece).
