    A Life.

    I take it all in,gorging it down,
    The pealsures i treasure,
    giving in to all the pressure,
    without thought ,without measure.

    Without remose i trample,
    not caring as they cry out,
    then crumple.

    Falsehooh is truths victor,
    In decite lies my joy and succor,
    Friends have i not,
    for brothers i care nought.

    Walk in my den,
    a ready thief you'd find there.
    I live to take,
    any talk of giving,
    i hate.

    I scorn the lowly,i disown them wholely.

    In strong rooms i stow my wealth,
    with it i can buy perfect health.

    The years drif by,
    Now it's time to say goodbye,
    I sit alone,
    no one here to hold my hands,
    as i go home.

    Why dont i feel happy?
    Of what am i still searching?
    I think i know,It must be because,
    In all my wealth,
    Fufilment i still have not felt.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
