Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) was an American writer and poet who invented the modern detective story and created enduring tales of horror.

His infamous short poem 'A Dream Within A Dream' questions the nature of reality and human existence. The poet states that his life is merely a dream within a dream. Although sad, he knows that nothing in life is tangible or permanent. Everything he possesses has to come to an end.
