Answer:
I think the seniors are sad because they didn't get to do all the other things that all the other seniors did before them. I would be very upset if i didn't get to go to senior prom.
Explanation:
My best guess would be A.
A=Edgar Poe didn't write "just anything" that would sell. If he did that, we probably wouldn't have ever heard of him for several reasons which are ultimately unimporatant to this question.
B=He claimed his first love was poetry, and he considered himself a poet before a regular, ordinary writer, but given the way the choices are worded, I'd say that B is still, with this in consideration, not the answer.
C=Edgar Poe did fabricate his personal life one time, when he created a backstory for his alias Arthur Gordon Pym.
D=True, he did invent it before Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ripped off Poe's detective C. Auguste Dupin.
E=Edgar Allan Poe was never insane. He was not that kind of man. He was more philosophical and aristocratic. Although in his youth he had toyed with an alcohol vice, he overcame it in his later years. He is only (and falsely) known for an alcoholic past because after Poe died, Poe's editor, Rufus Griswald slandered Poe and re-wrote Poe's biography, altering history away from the truth. Edgar Poe was never the "madman-alcoholic" that some people wrongfully believe he was.
