A Tribute To Stephen King

Folder: 
Other

Is there such a man, as great as King?
One who traverses with Lovecraft and Poe.
His mind a well of blasphemies & horrors,
yet so tantalizing that one craves a taste.
A taste of the horror & the macabre,
& to travel many roads with great heroes.
The one who gave us such masterpieces,
from 'Salems Lot to Carrie, The Shining to The Stand.
And the seven books that are the long road,
to the ever closer Dark Tower,
along side Roland and his friends.
And the many forms in which people see him.
As a brother, a father, and to the woman a lover.
Great is the mind that creates such greatness,
that provokes such feelings that can not be described.
The mood that takes over, when reading such novels,
are not to be forgotten, as is the novel itself.
With an ever growing number of followers,
no matter what foul words are said against him.
He shall ever remain, as do Lovecraft and Poe.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Just so you know, if this seems a bit overboard, remember that this was written by a almost fanatical devotee of Stephen King of the age of 16. Yeah. I kind of like it though. I love him so much. Yeah for Stephen King!!
