Do u think shakespeare was on drugs? or maybe just amzing imagination and writng

Question:That was E.A. Poe who was on drugs.

I don't think he was on drugs, except for a pint at the local pub. Just talented. I've never heard of a druggie being so well-spoken.

Well, okay, I've never heard of anyone being so well spoken. But still, if he was on opium (the main drug available in his day, cocaine came around later) he couldn't have been so prolific.

Good question!

i don't think that they had meth or the like way back then... gave me a good laugh though...

you don't have to do drugs to do great things and tell great stories that teach good moral lessons. He's on a much greater scale he's like the Tyler Perry of entertainment

lol! i tend to believe that he was bipolar-- cuz one day he would write stuff that was really upbeat- then the next day he would write stuff way to depressing.
