It is my intention to change the home page about twice a month. Each time I would like to showcase something that shows man's achievement. Whether that's a building, a poem, a painting, or an engineering marvel, if you think it's awesome, please submit it in this thread.
If I use it, you get 500 gold.

 To start of the contest I'm submitting this picture.
Victory Monument
built by the French in Vientianne, though the top level seems unfinished, and I'm told it was because they ran out of money.
(hope its not too big)

I shall submit a poem. Annabel Lee
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom bo the sea,
That a madien there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabell Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be love bo me.
I was a child and she ws a child,
In this kingdom by the sea:
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her high-born kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!-that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of those far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dessever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annavel Lee,
For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annavel Lee;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the breight eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling-my darling-my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
By Edgar Allan Poe I believe this to be one of Poe's best poems. So here it is!!! Winner! Thanks for the submission!
