Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Edgar Allan Poe The TellTale Heart. It needs to be at least 500 words.

He now has nothing to fear. No should no longer be nervous as he tells the readers his story. But as he tells of the tale to his readers he admits twice that he is really nervous, of what Simple, the jittery feeling and movements as well as his attitude of being suspicious of the policemen thinking that they were making a mockery out of him are typical actuations of a mentally ill person.

He is fixated with killing the old man. During the initial stages he said that when the idea came to his mind, he couldn't forget it. It plagued him day and night a true sign that the fixation was growing within him. He says that he loved the old man but it was his eye and the way it looked at him that made him want to kill the old man. The narrator compared the eye to that of a vulture's eye that can find its prey through the thickest mist. The eye, that pierces through his very soul. The eye knew him all too well such that when the old man looked at him "his blood ran cold". Perhaps it is this eye that has made him mentally unstable. Perhaps this eye represents the way Poe's Foster Father looked at him when he was already behaving lower than what was expected of him. Remember that Poe's Foster father eventually gave up on him for Poe fell short of his expectations when Poe left school and was always drunk. Perhaps Poe the writer is the narrator.
